Granny had nothing to bequeath us
In terms of material goods and cash.
But, she left a legacy of being honest
That is much better than an art stash.
She taught us by her examples
To always treat people with decency.
Even with women who talked about her,
She cared for them with much frequency.
I won’t get rich with her legacy,
But in her lessons I can always trust.
She left us much more than money,
Meaning riches that will never rot nor rust.

We need more Grannies.

She left something far more valuable than possessions. A delightful piece.
My eighty-five!
