Memories of Grandma
And her canning jars
All the times we spent together
In Grandma's cozy little kitchen

The laughter we shared
As we snapped the green beans
And cleaned the other veggies
To fill Grandma's canning jars

The stories she would tell
About the good old days
About the fun and joy
She shared with all her loved ones

The joy she said she had
When ever someone she loved
Would help her do her veggie canning
Telling us she always put a pinch of love
In each and every jar

Her beautiful twinkling eyes
As she busily bustled around
In her tiny little kitchen
Humming and singing a sweet song
A Bicycle Built for Two

The laughter and giggling
My Grandma always did
When ever something silly would happen
When she was filling a jar

These are the memories
I will never forget
Grandma in her
Tiny little kitchen

Filling her canning jars
For the ones she loved
