Childhood memories of my Nan

Created by Rebecca 11 months ago
Ecco the dolphin
"Crisp" before bed 
Waking up in the morning with a cat on our head 

Yum Sunday lunches 
Birds Custard for pud
Then watching a fil-um if we had been good

Chats in the kitchen
Games on the grass 
Childhood memories that always will last 

The smell of Ajax 
Rotary dial phone 
Just some of the things when I think of Nan's home

Hand feeding the cat
Dairylea was her food 
Your pets brought you comfort and lightened your mood 

You never would curse 
Instead you'd say "ship" 
Always so careful to not let bad words slip

Retro phone directory
In the hall by the door
Small things from the past that I love to recall 

Playing with 'Simon'
Yellow, red, green and blue 
A game that will always remind me of you 

Such comforting thoughts
Memories to hold dear 
Thinking of them somehow makes you feel near 

I hope you're at peace 
Time to lay you to rest

Goodbye for now, my nan, one of the best

Love you Nan, from your Granddaughter "Rebec" xxx
