Dear Grandparents

I know you still sad and heartbroken,
but these words is my appreciation token.
You loved me in your own special way
Unconditional love, I received everyday

Your visits to my grave I find pleasant, "but Oupa why so early in the morning?"
and Ouma "why when its so windy and storming?"
I know I was the apple of your eye
Your sunshine, your rainbow in the cloudy sky

I am sorry that I left so soon, but I had no choice,
I was called home by our Heavenly Father's voice,
Go on without me, live life without this weight
And know that I will wait for you at Heaven's east gate.
