Grandma

Raised from a 
Girl to a woman
All because 
I was blessed to have you
Like my 2nd mom
Gave you respect like no other
You treated me like a baby
So the bad habits STUCK
But the knowledge you taught me
Over shadowed
Those silly things
You welcomed all my children
Like your own
I owe you my life 
Just because you're gone
Does not mean the love I have for you is
The respect I had for you continues
Like your memory
Always
I love you, RIP
Grandma Santá
