GRANDMA NEVER TALKS



She knows why Grandma never talks--
She just doesn't have to.
She can hear her.
She knows what she's been through.

Grandma never talks,
Although she tells her a lot.
She knows everything she had
And everything she never got.

Her Grandma never speaks,
But if you listen for a while
Her eyes will tell the stories of pain
And you'll hear her joy in her smile.

Grandma never says a word,
But every day she tells her tale.
If you want to hear her story,
You must listen or you'll fail.

She knows why Grandma never talks--
She just doesn't have to.
She knows she can hear her.
She's heard what she's been through.
