A well-meaning gesture of kindness and love,
Grandma takes the jar from the top shelf and
inspects the lollies shaped like Turtle Doves.
Then, one by one, Grandma passes a lolly around,
so she may hear their delight and sweet chewing.
Once the children are sitting, the music starts,
Grandma begins the old-time dance to her song,
and the laughter begins, for all the steps are wrong.
