Many roles within one life,
swiftly chases buried strife,
always ignites inner thrive,
carries gifts of strength and drive.
Zestful acts fills every soul,
turns day dreams into firm goals,
feeds ambition, makes wants whole,
allows zeal to take control.
Smiles so bright, golden sun rays,
guides heartbeat to paint each day,
lightens dark, forms shades of gray,
dissolves profound fears away.
Resourceful, checks off her list,
powerful, hard to resist,
heals hurts with a simple kiss,
allows thoughts to co-exist.
Rolls both sleeves, wipes beads of sweat,
hard at work without regrets,
repays every single debt,
gives to all, till nothings left.
Ever pretty, never shy,
firmness exposed deep in eyes,
strong connection make bonds fly,
loyalty reaches the sky.
Grandma’s wisdom, always knows,
plants confidence, lets it grow,
teaches poise until it shows,
allows love to overflow.
