As I sit here,
I can hear voices in the wind.
And i feel as though you are near.
And even though you left me here to defend,
I know you'd still be here
If it were'nt for him.
Sea foam wash my feet:
Let me sink into the earth
My heels then my toes
Gentle breeze kiss me
So I may feel your majesty,
Whisper in my ear
Hands held on the shore
She holds me as the sea comes-
I love you Nana
I found a yella 'nana walking down the street
I took him home and peeled him 'fore dinner
He's my organic appetizer
And I'm his sweet treat
Thanks to C.L. Thornton and Sidney Hall for helping me to sort this little poem to
closure!
Pure joy,
Two generations down
Sweet child
Blessings abound
Innocent smile
Laughs, giggles
Abundant energy
And many wiggles
Daughter of my daughter,
Same beautiful eyes.
Gift from heaven
A wondrous prize
Every day a new wonder
Too fast do you grow
I dare not blink
grown before you know

I’m not Grandma, Granny, Gram
And certainly not Bubby.
It is Nana who I am
And Grandpa for my hubby.
Choosing monikers is strange –
We rarely do the picking –
And, once chosen, we can’t change
So what we choose is sticking.
When I’m greeted or I’m paged
With “Nana,” here’s the thing –
All my senses are engaged;
My heart begins to sing.
With wispy hair as matted snow
Her raisin skin and wrinkled brow
Framed a face lit with youthful smile
And bright loving eyes without guile
Her gnarled knuckles on withered hands
Gently combed my snarls into strands
She neatly gathered in a bow
Kissing me, it was time to go
Plus, one warm hug, as was the rule,
Before I would skip off to school.

Nana Niai
tide in high sea
climbed to Himalaya
Nana Niai
my remote sense in play
Nana
conquered thunder
Mastered in silence
Nana Niai
wild flower drips and drips
foothills of forests
Nana
cradles times in tame
Nana Niai
tundra is my escape
reach to cloud in top
Nana
danced with whales
As reach the top cloud
Nana Niai
Rest my body
Nihai
i don't feel like i belong here
ill never get used to this world
or maybe this world will never get used to me
i was birthed from a generation of misunderstood women
screaming in each others ears, conveying emotions beyond what we know
raised by roaches
fed by anger and the organs of my decaying lover
bathed in blood
and wrapped in skin
consumed by a world that can never love me

A gentle whisper
Throughout our hearts,
A memory never lost
A loving woman dear to our hearts.
Her smile would wipe away
The coldest of fears,
Her gentle love would wipe away
The endless tears.
Even though she has gone away
Her love and memory is always
Here To Stay!!
We love you Nana with everything
that we are and we know that you
are now walking in Glory with God,
and all of our lost loved ones.
Godspeed Nana
She promised we would see again,
The trailing night was a restrain.
She wanted to see me some years ago,
Couldn’t see her even to say hello.
Raging hearts were yet to be pacified,
Her late coming wasn't yet justified.
She promised we'd see again in the fall,
But mortals cannot see all nor know all.
Her mind plummeted into the night,
She was a shadow in the light.
Slowly she eased into the beyond,
Pulling apart our newly found bond.
