Notes About The Poem

Grand-mother

i miss the way she looked at me
i miss the way she held my hand

i miss the softness of her cheek
i miss the games and girlish laughter

i miss the passion in her day
i miss the time she'd spend with me

i miss the years cruelly stripped away
i miss most the things she had to teach me

but since she's been gone i recognize
she's been the angel watching over me
