Glandma
She is chic
She is peak
She is the way you ought to speak
For she is Glandma
She has kids who have kids
But she doesn't let that put her in the skids

Of a lost love.
And I, with tiny toes that cannot yet tap
On the ballroom floor below,
Eat jam sandwiches
On my Grandmot...

Shadows in the light (Goodbye Grandma)
`
I walk from room to room
and try to catch a glimpse of you,
but all that I could see,

of days now stored in memory
and with your recent passing,
you climbed upon the misty crag.
The kitchen tap still leaks,
we've fixed that oft and time again;
your trusty stove still works,
those smells a...
