In the not too distant past
I remember very well,
Grandmas tended to their knitting,
And their cookies were just swell.
They were always at the ready
When you needed some advice.
And their sewing (I can tell you)
Was available - and nice.
Well, Grandma's not deserted you.
She clearly loves you still.
You just won't find her cooking,
But she's right here at the till.
She thinks about you daily -
You haven't been forsook.
Your photos are quite handy
In her Pentium notebook.
She scans your artwork now though,
And combines it with cool sounds
To make electronic greetings.
She prints by the pounds.
She's right there when you need her,
You really aren't alone.
She's out now with her 'puter pals,
But she took her new cell phone.
You can also leave a message
On her answering machine
Or page her at the fun meet.
She's been there since nine-fifteen.
Yes, the world's a very different place,
There is no doubt of that.
So 'E' her from her web page,
Or just join her in a chat.
She's joined the electronic age,
And it really seems to suit her.
So don't expect the same old gal,
'Cause Grandma's gone 'computer'.
