Oh Grandma Dear

You left us too soon,
oh grandma dear, 
I really wish,
you were still here !

With that beautiful smile,
and your head full of hair,
I still cannot think,
that you are not there !

Leaving moments to treasure,
and memories to keep,
you are now in a slumber,
that is ever so deep.

You may not wake 
to see a dawn break.
You may be gone,
but you will still live on,

in the people you touched,
their mind and heart.
You will be in their thoughts,
and never live apart !

I too love your verse...I write like you. Simply beautiful. If in fact this was to your Grandma I am sure she heard every word.

Lovely reminisce Sagari. If you loss was recent i wish you healing, and if a lingering memory, you have captured a beautiful one. Thank you.
