Grandma's House was a Magical Place

"Grandma's House was a Magical Place"

Grandma's house was a magical place; drift in
on the stale scent of nostalgia
As sunbeams christen through bay windows
purple violets in textured milk glass

Grandma's house was a magical place; step down
curtsied low spiral staircase to the cellar
where a solitary soul seeks advice
from a high fidelity rotating recording of Helen Reddy

Grandma's house was a magical place; lay back
in grandpa's Lazy Boy recliner
The one with the mahogany swan handles
Next to the steam hot iron radiator

Grandma's house was a magical place; tastes of
Brach's butterscotch candies and Barq's red cream soda
A big wood console Zenith where The Price is Right
never seemed to turn off; white dwarf star point of light

Grandma's house was a magical place....
I'll never forget my grandma's beaming smiling face.
