    Poem Commentary

    To MiMi (Donna Parrish)

    Grandmother

     When I was a little girl you you watched after and cared for me
    and you always made my favorite dishes like your world famous
    lima beans

    When I was in my teens your wisdom and advice was
    much needed
    Even though it was appreciated a lot of it went
    unheeded

    When I was a young adult, your home was always open
    and I was very thankful because I was always roaming

    Now that I am a Grandmother too, failing is my
    greatest fear
    And I pray that I can be like you in my remaining years

    My love and respect for you will always be
    and you are still very wise in my view

    I hope that as my granddaughter grows
    She will love me as much as I love you

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
