Grandmother

You stood by me through it all,
You saw me stumble,
YOu saw me fall,
You picked me up and held me tight,
You washed away my tears and fears,
You walked by me through the years,
YOu were there when the tears came,
You were opened your arms once again,
You showed me love,you showed me strength,
You did for me at great lengths,

What I treasure most of all,
Is your love through it all,
Your beautiful face,
Your big green eyes,
Your heart of gold eternal size,
I miss your smile when I'm away,
I think of you each and every day,
My love for you will never die,
YOu are the apple of my eye,
