Terry cloth rag cooling your face
Eyes and heart longing for another place
Family fluttering by your side
Long awaited chitchat on their minds
You’re hands and head raise to kiss and embrace
With my arms around your neck and my lips against your face
I wish to be the healer of your bones
To soothe your pain so you can go home
But I know your burden I cannot relieve
So a granddaughter's affection is all you receive
