I Will Welcome You

You had the spirit of a stallion. You could not be tamed until you were ready and no matter how life may have tried you could not be broken. You brought a piece of something that many did not possess to every life, and when you opened your mouth unearthly words of wisdom were spoken. You were strong and beautiful and had the deepest blue eyes I've ever seen. The love that you held in your heart was like something out of dream, almost unreal. It was love and confidence and support and stability you made me feel. God blessed me by letting me be a part of you. I am so happy that our lives crossed paths and you helped see me through. Now you are in His memory, waiting to be raised. When you live again, your mind will be clear. The fog will be lifted. There will be no haze. You will run about and never die. You will feel no pain or fear, never cry. Your days will be filled with love, strong and true. Your last words to me were I love you. Here I wait, just trying to get through. I will see you again, Grandma. Into my arms, I will welcome you.
