Grandads red cabbage
I come from a sick kid’s hospital the doctors hoping I would live.
I come from papa’s lucky handkerchief and the soup he made for dinner.
I come from riding the cheeky Shetland who bolted across the fields.
I come from a milk moustache at nightime.
I come from the confidence of going into the show ring on that cheeky Shetland.
I come from leaving my mum at the first day of nursery not even saying goodbye.
I come from Lady Gaga’s monster ball singing to all the songs of by heart.
I come from watching top gun with grandad.
I come from Grease, Carousel, the Wizard of Oz and Glee.
I come from Rachel, Monica and Phoebe.
I come from grandma giving me Canadian sweets and hot chocolate.
I come from catching the salmon grandads’ friends always talk to me about.
I come from grandads red cabbage the secret ingredient cranberries.
