Grandmom

My grandmother had a stroke and has a blood clot.. And then she died on Monday 7/12/10 at 1410 (2:10 PM).

I love you

We all do.

Thinking about this make us blue

We don't want to lose you.

Thinking of you

I just want to cry

 

Out in Phoenix, your home

In the middle of the night

Out where the tumbleweeds roam

When there is no option to fight

You're fast asleep -

God took over your fight.

 

Just last time we saw you

You were perfect as a dove

Now it's all gone askew

This has only tripled my prayers and love.

I know I speak for all of us too -

We'll never forget you.

 

Sweet, southern grandmother

You were unlike any other.

Life can be a joy,

It's something we regularly celebrate and enjoy

I know you were stubborn as a mule,

You never gave in.

It seems so cruel,

Your face always held a grin.

Now you're up in your new home,

Watching over us, I know.

You're free of worry and free to roam,

Now is the last time to say hello.

I read this now

The last time I'll see you

As I take a bow

I say my final adieu.

Jennifer Gail Michelli,

I know I speak for us all

When I say

I love you

And I'll never forget you.

So very sorry for your loss!
A lovely poem for 'grandma' :)
I've lost both of my grandmothers and miss
them each so much. Feels strange not to be able
to call them, or visit them anymore.
What a lovely photo. (((((((hugs))))))x
