MY BOSOM BUDDY, MY GRANDDAUGHTER
She is only nine, and yet at 66, a friend in me, she does see.
Her "ten year old toy", she often cuddles; this she cutely calls me.
Does my manicure, pedicure and at times, even applies mehndi,
Makes hair styles on my grey, to make me look trendy
We draw, paint, do craft; and in singing and other creativities, also indulge;
At times, she rides upon me, calling me an alligator with a bulge.
For a while uno we play, often also jumble words or scrabble.
Whilst studying Geography with the game Atlas and a globe we dabble.
But to make her actually study, is a difficult task indeed !!!
At times, becomes she, a baby and feed her I have to; literally spoon feed
Insists she, I share her food , lucky I am, from her chocolate to get a lick.
Willing she is, even to share her favourite popsicle stick.
My cheeks she pulls , or my neck she plays with, calling me, "Fuzzy " ; her pet
Anyone would fall in love with her charming ways; about this, I can easily bet
