Memories

Crying out a river wondering why she had to go                                        
I guess it's just some things that I will never know                                     
She was the Best thing that ever happened to me, she Always made me smile                                                
She Always showed she Loved me and went the Extra Mile                      
We were truly Best Friends, we were two peas in a pod                                 But I guess someone needed her more and his name was God             
The day he called her home, my Life was Forever changed                          
I lost all my happiness & became totally deranged                                  
I knew at that moment my whole life was rearranged                             
And to bring my Grandma back, I'd give anything in exchange                  
I knew that No one else would ever Love me like she did                            She catered to me and nurtured me like I was her own kid                          She taught me right from wrong, She taught me Good from Bad          
She protected me from the Hate from my Mom and Dad                      
She was very Special, I could go on and on                                                    But I also know that a poem can only be so long                                     
So I'm gonna end this by saying She was my Heart                                       And I truly Wish that God didn't take us Apart.

Oh, Sequoia, you have found the right vehicle for your pain, as poetry can be so cathartic. My granddaughter is sooo missing her grandpa (other side of family) something about him comforted her, his ear listened to her heart! We all miss this loving man! Blessings, dear one! <3
