To Grandma by Tan Seok Hoon

 You plough through your life

To bring up your children

Choose the son you think is filial

Work for his family

But do not foresee

The day he sourns you

Asks that you be rotated

Among his brothers

Grandma

You must understand 

As season changes

People will also changed

The son whom you love the most

Will not you

Live out your twilight years

In his house

Grandma

Won't bring up children 

Just work

For a place in an old home

When senile

Will be in the company of cronies

Each a table to tell

O the cruelty of their children 

Who send them to die

And I'll remember you grandma.

THE END

    People who have their grandmother by their side are pretty fortunate, as was the case for me since my grandparents died when I was young. So even though I only have a few fond memories of them, I am grateful to them for raising such lovely parents.

    One of the poem's messages conveyed to the audience is a mother's love. There are no limits and measurements to a mother's love; no matter how horrible the sins that her children have committed against her, she will always be there to forgive and soothe her children.

    I remember my grandmother when I would walk by her house after school and visit her. After all, she would offer me some money and food which excites me the most. Also, one of the memorable experience I have with my grandmother is when I get my test papers after completing an exam, my grandmother is the first person to see them since my parents were both working at the time. She would express her delight in my accomplishments and express her happiness to me.

    Everyone has commented on how much I resemble my grandmother. I am delighted to hear that, but as you can see, we are not that close, which is something I will regret for the rest of my life. I've never had grandparents that were close to each other. That is why I am kind to other grannies, allowing them to feel as though they are treasured and adored by their grandchildren.

    So it is necessary to educate this generation on the importance of honoring their grandparents not only because they are members of the family but also because they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. It would hurt them if you scolded or shouted at them for being deaf, and they would remember it if you naturally express your regrets. They would believe that they are nothing more than a burden to this family.
