The Holidays Without my Grandma

I can remember,
You never forgot my birthday,
I can remember when you sat me on your lap,
And showed me how to sow,
I can remember when you lost your memory,
You still remembered me,
I can remember when that memory was gone,
You still loved me the same,
I can remember that phone call,
When my mother face went blank,
I can remember her words after that,
When she told me you were gone.
I won't let it be for good,
I'll see you after this,
Maybe not for awhile,
But I'll long that day,
When I don't have to cry,
To see your face again,
I couldn't stand to see you put in the Earth,
So I had to watch from a distance,
And hold my tears for my sister,
To be the strong male,
But I'll cry them now for you,
Express them through this poem,
To say I still love you.
I wish I could have one more hug,
I'll cut my legs as low as you want,
See you eye to eye,
Just to see it's o.k.,
To see your still there,
But I'll accept it isn't true,
Even if I have to cry as hard as I am now,
This is the first Christmas here without you,
The first Thanksgiving past,
I'm thankful for your memory,
And these tears I've cried,
Are my gift to you,
I still love you grandma.

My heart goes out to you both my parents are gone and my daughter . But death is apart of life and it is just passing from one door into the next Someday you will see her again in another time and place :)

| your poem brought tears to my eyes! i know how it is because this year was my first year without my best friend Shannon, who was killed in a car accident. She was the type of person that could have been my sister. wish you well always. |
