Grandma’s House

Grandma’s house is very small

just a bedroom and a hall

hall-
living room
 parlour = sitting room

and a parlour full of flowers

lots of clocks to tell the hours
and a kitchen with a cat
fast asleep upon a mat

and a bathroom cool and white

full of towels soft and bright
 and a front door with a bell
and a garden with a well

and a place to sit and dream

down beside a little stream
stream – a small, narrow river
Grandma’s house is full of things
things with wheels and things with wings,
 spout – a tube-shaped
opening for
liquid to be
poured out of a
container

things with spouts and things with handles,

bells and books and fans and candles.
Grandma’s house is very small,
but I love to go to call,

and to share a pot of tea ---

just my grandmama and me!
Pamela Mordecai
