1. Grandma
From my beginning until your end,
You were by my side, my first best friend.
I never expressed it when you were here
Though my love and admiration were sincere.
Grandmothers are famous for their hearty meals and fresh baked cookies, their abundant hugs and kisses, and their insistent desire to spoil their grandchildren. Times spent at grandma's house are often marked by love, laughter, and contentment. In fact, grandmothers are often responsible for bringing the whole family together. Because grandmothers are such a source of joy for their grandchildren, they are always sorely missed when they pass away. To lose a grandmother is to lose a most valuable family member. Many grandchildren find a peace and solace after the loss of their grandmother by expressing their feelings through poetry.
From my beginning until your end,
You were by my side, my first best friend.
I never expressed it when you were here
Though my love and admiration were sincere.

A part of Gramma is a part of me.
A part of love, a part of family,
To share a laugh,
To shed a tear,

Grandma's room is empty; she moved away.
She departed this life and is gone to stay.
There was no struggle, but with great ease
she closed her eyes and took her leave.
I am thankful my poem touched you in some way. Sorry about your lost but remember that love heals wounds, even God's love.
Life gets very busy.
Things get in the way.
Do I have time to visit?
I'll go another day.
I turned 67 this year and have been searching for old friends online. I went to college in a city 1500 miles away. It was probably the best time of my life. I have now looked for four friends...
Grandma is one special angel, a
Really gentle, beautiful soul.
Angel of God, so pure and whole.
Never leave me, stay close by.
The years will always roll on by
and time will always pass,
but every memory I have of you
will definitely always last.
You're not that far away.
I can still envision your smile.
God brought you to be with Him,
But I'll see you in a while.
The words you spoke so wisely
Have never been so clear.
All the lessons that you taught me
Still remain right here.
When my grandmother died, I felt so empty because she was the closest thing I've lost. She was there for me when I needed her the most. And every special day of my life she was there: 1st day...
I see you in the window as you wave goodbye to me.
I hear you say a drop of milk as I go to make tea.
The stories of your life sounded like straight from a book.
Your adventures inspired me with every step I took.
My Grandma is in Heaven.
She left this earth today.
Mommy tells me that Grandma
Is no longer here to play.
My Nana Sue died 2 weeks ago and now I am going to her funeral. I miss my Nana and will do anything to get her back. She died of a brain hemorrhage It was so unexpected that we only found out...
She wasn't like the other grans,
Spoiling kids with sweets,
The minute you stepped out of line,
That slipper's off her feet!
Although I cannot see you,
I feel your presence near.
I will hold you close in memory
Till I drop my very last tear.
I was 16 years old when my grandma died. She died of kidney failure, but my grandma had a loving heart and was always kind and loving and would do anything for anyone no matter what you were...
My grandma, oh she was so grand.
I loved the way she'd hold my hand,
and when my troubles they did swarm,
I'd go to her; her heart was warm.
I am in my 50s, and I just lost my grandma on Friday August 24, 2018. I am so lucky that I had her this long. She was 94 years old but had the heart of a lion. She is missed so much already...
Nan, to walk into your room and see you smile,
I walked over and hugged you all the time.
You always made me smile and always had stories to tell.
I loved sitting with you every day and listening to the memories you had to share.
My Grammy passed away Saturday morning after a tough battle with cancer. It took her so fast, and this poem captures my exact feelings. I have never watched someone die before, and seeing...
She was so nice and so sweet.
She had a big family and lots of friends
She was a grandmother that meant so much to me
I was my grandmothers first grandchild and my daughter was the first great grandchild. My grandparents were the greatest grandparents and my aunt told me that their home was brighter when I...
A woman of extreme strength, courage and love,
Who was beautiful, soft and now peaceful and free as a dove.
Someone on who our admiration was built around,
For her womanhood, wife, friend and grandmother since she was brought into this ground.
My great-grandmother lived to be 101. She was a beautiful, wise, and strong woman. Up until July 2017, she was still living in her own home and cooking full meals. She more or less raised me...
If Grandma had a meaning
I'll tell you what it'd be
if you were close to yours
like mine was close to me
My Grandmother has been one of the most important people in my life and such a great influence to me always, and she passed away about a month ago. I still can't stop mourning the loss. But...
On the stormy gray day you went away.
Crystal clear pure tears were shed from my face.
How will I survive without you today?
I stand here longing for your own embrace.
Losing my grandmother took so much from me. Things won't never be the same. Life won't never be the same. Wake up I tell myself over and over again. But here I am awake, and this not a...
I sat there and watched her, helplessly fighting for every breath.
The doctor said she would die today, so all of the family left.
My grandfather cried and said I cannot leave your side.
Although I do not want to see you go, I have to stay to say goodbye.
Loved this poem. It's the ones that have the most emotion that are the best. When presented this way, death can almost seem like a beautiful transformation, not a depressing time in life....
