"my Heart"

I love you,I miss you and I always will.
You held me,you rocked me and fed me a meal.
Your the reason I have heart for those in pain.
You gave me the strength to carry no shame.
We growed up poor but we always had you.
You were always there when life seemed so blue.
You've been gone so long but we kept you in our hearts.
Sweet granny your the reason we can't be pulled apart.
                 Teresa Skyles
Inspired by Constance the Rambling poet Grandma,I love you

Very nice job, Teresa. I think Constance wants you to include the name of her original poem on which this was based for her contest. I know she'll love this! Love, Carolyn
