When I am an old lady

Contributed by mercedes on Thursday, 25th March 2004 @ 11:56:15 AM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry

When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid,
And bring so much happiness just as they did.
Iwant to pay back all the joy they've provided.
Returning each deed! Oh, they'll be so excited!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

I'll write on the walls with reds, whites and blues,
And I'll bounce on the furniture .. wearing my shoes.
I'll drink from the carton and then leave it out.
I'll stuff all the toilets and oh, how they'll shout!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

When they're on the phone and just out of reach,
I'll get into things like sugar and bleach.
Oh, they'll snap their fingers and then shake their head,
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

When they cook dinner and call me to eat,
I'll not eat my green beans or salad or meat,
I'll gag on my okra, spill milk on the table,
And when they get angry... I'll run .... if I'm able!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

I'll sit close to the TV, through the channels I'll click,
I'll cross both eyes just to see if they stick.
I'll take off my socks and throw one away,
And play in the mud until the end of the day!
When I'm an old lady and live with my kids.

And later in bed, I'll lay back and sigh,
I'll thank God in prayer and then close my eyes.
My kids will look down with a smile slowly creeping,
And say with a groan, "She's so sweet when she's sleeping!"

God Bless All Moms and Grandmas Everywhere!!!

Oh boy your children must be a handful and when you really are a Grandma you will perhaps think of this very delightful poem or even show it to them. I bet it will tickle them pink. Nice to know that there is still normality in this old world of ours.

Great write If I could I would give a hundred marks for this wonderful piece.

Thanks for the read.
