I found this poem and I was really moved by it. I thought I would pass it on. It shows such great depth and insight. I really relate to this.

Mother and Grandma

My mother feeds me tuna fish
with broccoli on the side.
But Grandma gives me candy
when my mouth is open wide.
My mother slices apples
and oranges for dessert.
My grandma brings me doughnuts
if she finds out I am hurt.

My mother makes me drink my (
soy) milk
most every single night.
But Grandma gives me ice cream bars
when I do something right.
My mother cooks up rice and beans
that have an awful taste.
So I say, "See ya later,
I'm going to Grandma's place!"

Nothin' in the world like bein' a Nana!!
