Now I have had a busy time, I baby sat all day
My grandkids, four, all girls you see came over for a play.
And we went to the Tangled Maze, got lost and just had fun
Played Mini Golf and Lazer Force, ice skated on the run.
Then back we came to draw and paint a board game for us too
They never stopped their smiles all day, we had so much to do.
I love the kids to come around, they fill my heart with joy
I spoil them all with lot's of love, and buy them each a toy.
And then they had to go back home, I kissed them all goodbye
Do come again and make it soon, we will was their reply.
The house a mess I cleaned it up, a smile upon my face
I'm glad they like to be with me, their love I can't replace.
And so that night when I lay down, to rest my weary head
I didn't think my time was up, next morn I woke up dead.
Dead they say how can that be, I wonder what went wrong
I saw them all with teary eyes, "Hey wait I won't be long"
I'm not dead it's just a dream, this nightmare now must stop
Don't take me please I will not go, don't give to me the chop.
They gathered round to take a look, my lifeless body still
But I'm not going anywhere, deaths just not in my will.
And then I saw their crying eyes, my heart it gave a thump
My little girls will save me now, come on my heart just pump.
I worked real hard, to them return, and then I took a breath
"A miracle" they all called out, that day I cheated death.
Oh Nan you're back with us again, we knew you would not leave
What's all this fuss your talk about, you're all to young to grieve.
And that is how my day turned out, for such a tangled maze
To wake up dead that's not for me, it's now just all a haze.

Author Notes
How I would react If I woke up dead, not for me. I have to much living to do and hopefully many many more years to watch my family and grandkids grow.
