O My Grandmother

O my grandmother
Sweet like sugar
You are great
You taught me alphabet
How to write
With pen on paper white
You taught me later
How to do things right
You made me bold
To pronounce the word
You took me to school
You are so nice and cool
I played more
Learnt little
You used to wait
Sitting on the stool
Till my class ended
You cared me
Whenever I got wounded
You taught me every little thing
Like an experienced teacher
You guided me to learn
From the things of world
New and old
No one is far better
Than you
O my grandmother
