Grandmothers are significant people in the lives of their grandchildren. Grandchildren often have specific and loving memories of times spent together with their grandma. There may be a Grandparents Day to celebrate these special people. But grandmothers are mothers too and should be recognized on Mother’s Day as well. These are the perfect poems for children and adults to share with grandmothers who have made a lasting impact on their lives.
A poem about a very special woman in the life of her granddaughter.
Nana, you are special.
Your love knows no bounds.
A room takes special warmth whenever you're around.
You think I'm cute and talented and maybe even wise,
But I know that's why all grandparents see though loving eyes.
Every day with you is precious;
I'm so grateful for the time.
Of all the grandparents in the world,
I'm thankful that you're mine.
Thanks for this poem it is really nice. My Nana's birthday is tomorrow and I wanted a poem for her and I'm glad I chose this site. Thanks again. Also to the writer thank you for writing a...
For a special Nana who always made time for her granddaughter.
Who would try to give me all the world
As far as she could see?
Who always has two open arms
And smiles just made for me?
Who always finds some special time
That we two can share?
And never is too busy
To show how much she cares.
There's not another in the world
From Rome to Ohio
I'm glad God made you for me
I love you so much, Nana!
This poem reminds me of my only grandchild, Faith. She is my son's daughter and was born when he was only 20 and I was 42 so I was not quite ready to be called "Grandma" yet but I loved...

A grandmother binds her family together with her unconditional love.
Her words
are like a golden thread that binds our family.
Her wisdom,
like an art that shares so generously.
Her feelings
like a quilt that warms us like no other.
The hands
of one so dear the one we call Grandmother.
Of the sweet relationship between grandson and grandmother.
She picks me up from a fall.
She yells at me when I color on the wall.
She tells me about God and encourages me to pray.
She holds me close and tells me everything's okay.
She teaches me right from wrong.
She's my grandma; we always get along.
She makes me smile instead of frown.
She's my grandma, the best in town.
Her name is Joan, and it's love she's sharin'.
Lots of love, your grandson Aaron.

Grandma, you are all these things to me, and I will be these to you.
You're my earth, you're my world;
you're my moon that circles my world.
You're my moon, you're my star;
you're the one I look upon in the dark.
You shine like the sun that brightens my day
And take all the dark storms away.
I will be there for you whenever you need help.
I will shine like you did through my sickness and health.
I will be that angel that sits on your shoulder
to make you happy and better when the sun goes away and sets for the next day.
Don't worry, I will still be on your shoulder
and I will love you until the world is over.
I love my grandparents a lot. My grandma is unwell now-a-days, she is in the ICU. I wish every single person reading this would please pray for her. I can't imagine my life without her....
Taking the time to thank the ones in our life who made a difference
Grandma, I was thinking of you today and a smile tickled my face.
Remembering all the things you taught me, like always to say grace.
I remember sitting in your lap while you read the Bible out loud,
To hear me sing a gospel song made you so proud.
I thought of those Saturday mornings I watched them fix your hair,
I remember crossing the street and hearing GIRL, YOU BETTER STOP RIGHT THERE!!!
I remember the goodness you instilled in me though sometimes it doesn't show,
You played a very special part in my life and I thought that you should know....
My childhood is filled with memories of you that you couldn't buy with all the gold in the world,
And even though I am all grown up, at heart I will always be GRANDMA'S LIL' GIRL!!!
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my nana a couple months ago. She meant everything to me, still does. I came here looking for inspiration for my next poem for class. Thank you for writing...
I made this poem up for my grandmother because she is very dear to me. It's for Mother's Day as you can tell by the last line. I described her all throughout the poem. I hope you enjoy! -Cheers
Grandmothers are the very best,
In many more ways than one.
They dance, they sing,
They laugh, they play.
Never let you stick out your tongue.
They play in the garden and on the swing set.
Sometimes even in the sand.
And when you go to cross the street,
They reach out and hold your hand.
They love the flowers you pick,
And all the pictures you paint.
They also love the poems,
You do tend to make.
They may not like to cook,
And they may not like to clean,
But boy do they like to see
How happy you can be
When you're with your grandma
On Mother's Day.
Profile of Grandma
The way it smells when she cooks.
When you're bad, the way she looks.
How she would do anything to help a friend.
The way she'll stick by you until the end.
She's one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
Unless you get on her bad side, then you're in for a treat.
The way she'll cheer you up when you're down.
And how she helps you to turn your frown.
The way she jokes and laughs with me,
Her soul so kind, so sweet, so free.
She inspires me in different ways every day.
My grandma is wonderful in every way.
Today is my mamaw's birthday and I called to read it to her and she started crying saying it was the most beautiful thing she has ever heard.
Written for a grandmother who has been through it all and then more. With each time, she kept her family in mind and survived all over again.
Her smile can light up a room
Her presence is of grace
Her opinions are heard without one word
but by the look upon her face
Her touch is so gentle
Her heart as big as the moon
Her spirit is kindhearted
and warm as a summer's afternoon
Her hair a river of gray
Her eyes radiant as the sun
Her time she'll take no matter how long
until the work is done
Her kisses are so soft
Her hugs preferred from the rest
My granny is mine forever and ever
and she'll always be the best
This is everything that my grandmother had done for me until she deid from cancer but all I know is when my kids have their own. I will be just like her because she showed me how to be the...
I recently started writing inspirational words to friends or acquaintances who were ill or missing a loved one. At the urging of others, I began to compile the poems in a notebook. I will leave copies of these for my adult children, upon my demise.
I find such a comfort
In my Granny's lap.
I snuggle and lie there
As I take my nap.
I wiggle around
Till I find my place
Then peep out to see
The love that's in her face.
Sometimes pretending to sleep,
But I'm not.
I'm just resting, enjoying
The time as we rock.
There's nothing quite like it
In all of the land
To wake up, cooing
While she holds my hand.
Fond memories with grandma.
Between the sticky fingers and messy hair,
You really love and truly care.
You have always been there through everything,
Remember when we all broke your swing.
You cook the best food for us to eat,
Especially fresh apple cake, oh what a treat.
We all helped plant seeds in a row,
To sit on the swing and watch them all grow.
Now we pick your roses to bring them to you,
So you can see how much it means to us too.
We all line up in a perfect little row,
So you get to see each one of us grow.
You are strong, beautiful, peaceful and serene,
You deserve to live in paradise and see finer things.
Blessed, beautiful grandma, so collected and confident,
We can't imagine a gift greater than you, your love is heaven sent
