There once was a girl born to Ida and Ben;
She married Big Al and soon after then,
Grew a large brood,
Who adored eating food,
And without her this could not have been.

Who mothered three kids and later became,
Grandma to eight,
Nine more made her great-
How they loved her, that ninety five year old dame.
