1. My Grandmother’s Beautiful Smile

Happy Birthday, Grandma.
Your ready smile reassures me,
Oh yes, everything is going to be all right,
and what I said or did, no longer matters.
Open arms welcome home those who’ve strayed.
Like the sun shining on still water, your smile warms my heart.
Soft-spoken words make me brave whenever I’m afraid.
Your wisdom reaches beyond the boundaries of judgment,
and I find acceptance and unconditional love.
You’ve taught me that second chances are real,
When I want to describe what love is, Grandmother, I simply say your name.

2. Grandma, I Brought You a Birthday Cake

Hey Grandma, I brought you a birthday cake.
Make your 26 cats give us room for Heaven’s sake.
And won’t you please turn your TV set down?
It’s so darn loud I can’t hear another sound.
Let me move your collection of vintage TV Guides,
So I can come and sit by your side.
Hey this plastic sofa cover looks brand new,
Did mom buy it as a birthday present for you?
Here put on your spectacles so you can see,
This is a birthday card for you from me.
Or maybe I should just read it to you, simple as that
Because we both know you’re as blind as a bat.
No, I’m not being smart mouthed,
Not me, oh no, nope.
Let’s not revisit that time you
Washed my mouth out with soap.
I just wanted to wish you
A happy birthday.
Now let me push some cake toward you
And slowly back away.

May you keep smiling with me all the time.

13. Happy Birthday Grandmother

Partying on through
To early hours quite late
Birthdays are a day
We should all celebrate

Not always yours
But quite often another’s
Such as friends family
Fathers and mothers

For many wishes to flow
Those that friends
Or family often bestow

On this special day
It’s one to relay
Wishing a wonderful
Grandmother Happy Birthday

—Christopher Robin, Grand Parent’s Day

You have taught me enough
And so I can face this life with ease though it is tough
I will cherish in my heart every word of yours
And use them continuously in life’s course
I will employ your words for inspiration anytime I get upset
Because I know they will make me the best
Happy birthday, granny

15. On The Wings Of An Angel

My oh-so-precious Grandma, I’ve always wondered where you keep your wings,
Do you hang them in your closet, with each of your other things?
Or, do you just put them away when no one’s looking and use them only at night,
Maybe you just give them away to the stars, to polish them up oh-so-bright,
In any case, I’m positive you have wings; it surely must be true,
‘Cause God always give them to angels like you, who are but oh-so-few.

It also means trouble if you fall

It also means we can’t use an exact number of candles on your cake!
We love you grandma, happy birthday!

Happy Birthday, dear Grandma
Happy Birthday to you
Whose heart and whose mind
Are fair and are true
Whose care and affection
Are unparalleled
And whose capacity for love
Cannot be held
Happy Birthday, dear Grandma
Happy Birthday to you
Celebrate the amazing
One that is you.

73. All The Wisdom In Life

All the wisdom that you have taught
All the things unknown
You have saved me from so many things,
A special song my heart wants to sing
Only for you on this special day of yours
My granny you are simply the best
In life and every which test,
I so love you from my heart,
From the very start!
Wishing a very happy birthday to you!
God bless you!

74. Much Love

The other day I spilt some jam on her brand new couch,
But all she did was stare at it and blurt out ‘Ouch’,
I once even lost my toothbrush and broke a glass,
But with my grandma around, all I heard was ‘Alas’,
My feet are almost always bare, I look like quite a disgrace,
But my grandma, oh, she doesn’t really care,
She’s almost always busy, but then she takes a look at the knots in my hair,
One, two, three and four, she drops everything; my hair is now her only care,
When I’m grown and possibly on my own and when visits do get rare,
In the entire world, I’d never forget dear Grandma, the love with so much care
This for you is your day, I’ve only this to say,
Happy Birthday, From you, I’d never want to be far far away!
