Grandma Dear

How brave she was, who lost her love on Christmas week, to God above. Strength of Job, tough resin of myrrh. My dear grandma, how I loved her! With veil, she'd kneel and fold her hands - trusting God for aid, for sure plans. Blessed by him, her big heart he’d spur. My dear grandma, how I loved her! Oh how she loved her family - driving hours to visit thee. Her lasting legacy does stir. My dear grandma, how I loved her! 1/4/2016

Such a beautiful and heart touching poem Kim. I only knew my grandmother on my father's side and she passed when I was very young. I enjoyed you poem as it brought to mind some of what I probably missed.
