An Ode To Rachel

She shone within the Sun's realm And her beautiful soul danced beneath the light of the moon. She had touched my heart with her kindness And her devotion had cleansed my soul. Her name was Rachel My Grandmother,my friend And it seems like forever that i have missed her And will do until my life's end. I always wonder why she had been taken so soon, At least i had the chance to tell her that i loved her too And as each day passes i think of her always Imagining what she would look like if her journey of Life Was still going strong And sometimes i do weep for having lost her For i truly wish that she was still here Instead of beneath the earth And so very distant from me. I call her the Rose For indeed she was the blooming flower of my Life And although she has passed I know that her spirit walks beside me For i feel a presence, I know that it is she My guardian,my angel My dear Rachel still lives through me.
