She wants to talk on the phone nowadays
And I lap it up...
Fantastic stories
With ridiculous time frames
Are shared with me ...
"Next week when I am five
I’ll go to big school."
And, "poor my sister is so tired
She'll keep sleeping for
A thousand years."
Other amazing facts
Of Nature and Anatomy
Are served up
From this sponge-like
Four year old brain
And my grandmotherly heart
Swells with love and pride.
