Granny



You are Love,
Love is you,
Generous to all,
kind to all
Thinking of others before yourself
you are a miracle,
A miracle sent from above
sent to help us sent to guide us
sent to love us through our pain
you were called back
leaving us with memories
memories that leave us with hope,
hope that we will stop hurting so much.
Hope that tomorrow, we will wake with less pain,
whether it be the smallest amount, that small amount will grow and grow.
We will always feel that pain but hopefully, it wont be as bad; as the day you left.
The stories you share, give us knolledge, that will be passed from generation to generation.
Guiding us in tough time, preventing us from making mistakes
showing us the importance or lack of in our actions.
You always give the best hugs,
I could just relax against you, instantly calmed
you support everyone. with their ideas, thoughts, and actions.
You are a fantastic christian woman, always finding a time to pray, to study the bible, to give, to share, to forgive.

You fight so, so hard
fighting for years is a battle, a war
I will always believe you won this war, and you wont ever have to fight again, because you are a miracle, a miracle sent to save us all.
