Her wrinkled hand took hold of his

as she sang a grand old song

Her grandson  looked at it & said:

You've been in the bath too long!

 

She said, "Those creases are like  the circles 

within a wonderful tree!

It shows how long I've been around

How long that I've been me!"

 

There's a lot of creases there, Grandma

They've spread right up to your face!

I reckon if  you were a tree,

you'd have grown right into space!

 

"Well, thanks for that! My dear Grandson

You've made me feel so old!

Best get you off to bed in case 

I suddenly turn green with mould!"
