Question
Write a descriptive paragraph on "My Grandmother".

Answer

My Grandmother
I am fortunate to have my grandmother. She's truly an angel. My mother is fond of her and always asks for her advice before doing anything. My grandmother's name is Savitha. She is short and plump, with a slight hunch. Her face is a criss-cross of wrinkles. Her hair is a silver grey and she neatly combs it into a small bun. She's very soft spoken and always has a sweet smile for everyone. My 'nana' as I fondly call her, is very loving and kind. She's loved by all. I always love to visit her for the delicious food, she prepares for us, whenever we are at home. She has a pet dog and cat and a few chickens too. She loves animals. She likes gardening and has many flowering plants and some fruit bearing trees, as well. I love to listen to her stories about her past. She's such a fun-loving person. I'm inspired by her zest for life and the positive approach towards everything. I have learnt many things from her. I cherish the memories of my time spent with her and pray for her good health. It's a blessing to have her with us. I love my 'nana' a lot.
