A sweet picture and a well-written poem to describe the joy of a grandmother's love. Great rhyming and easy to read. How blessed the children that have a grandmother to teach them these things.

I also have fond memories of my grandmother--both of them. I remember their resourcefulness, their hugs, and so much more. Your poem is very well-written, expressive, and descriptive.

-You did a very good job with the poem.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-It is fitting that you chose your grandmother as the theme.
-You show how much you learned from her from sewing, seeing the good in people, and don't be fooled by false pretenses.
-A very good concluding verse, too.
-It was meaningful to me because it reminded me of my grandmothers.
-Well done.

This club entry is very well written, and I enjoyed reading. I know it's true of my grandmas. I hope my grandchildren can feel the same about me. Thank you for sharing.

This is a very well written poem you have penned about sitting at your Granny's knee while you listened to what she told you. You used very good descriptive words and how a grandma usually is. Thank you for sharing! love and blessings, Teri

This is just great, Yvonne. It sounds like my Mother. I
never was fortunate enough to have a grandmother, but my Mother did all this. It was my mother's knee. Your poem is lovely. Well done. Nancy:)

    My mother, too. My grandmother lived with us, so I was with her during the day until I started school. Thanks for a great review!

I don't know if this is based on your own grandmother, but she certainly was a remarkable woman. You did such a nice job with this uplifting poem - the smooth sailing meter made it a joy to read. Regards, Lilly

There is wisdom in having learned from life and passing it on the younger generation is a worthwhile goal. Children are fortunate who have grandparents who have lived a good life and have the time and inclination to pass on. I love your rhyming poem telling us of this.

Everyone I have reviewed with this picture seems to have missed an important point. The little girl is is pouting discontentedly. While later on Granny's advice may have been taken to heart, at the time of this pictur It does not seem to me to be appreciated.
