An Extraordinary Ordinary Life
For Mrs. Tinney Davidson, The Waving Grandma
Comox, British Columbia
She lived in an ordinary house in an ordinary street
And every day she waved to children passing by
And every day the waved-at children waved back
Because a wave is a good beginning to the day
In the morning she waved the children along to school
And in the evening waved them back again home
And every day the waved-at children waved back
Just like the waves that hug a beach, with love
And then one day she went away, and waved -
And the waved-at children will wave back forever
Extraordinary!
