POEM STARTER
My grandmother always told me…
Write a poem which begins with this line.
The Matriarch
My grandmother always told me If you aren’t learning you are dying It’s something I’m always applying So continued growth is a guarantee
My grandmother always told me That we have to be kind to others Of all orientations sizes and colors So of ignorance I would be free
My grandmother told me That you had to have fun Without it life hasn’t begun Which I’ve found to be key
My grandmother told me That she was the matriarch We were never a patriarch And I would have to agree
So many teachings to rely on Her advice has been fateful For her wisdom I am grateful I miss her now that she is gone
