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.
