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.

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.

This poem resonated with her as many of the...
Grandma is one special angel, a
Really gentle, beautiful soul.
Angel of God, so pure and whole.
Never leave me, stay close by.
Some might say, "my dearest child",
"You did not know her long"
So is it time that measures love?
And wouldn't that be wrong?

The years will always roll on by
and time will always pass,
but every memory I have of you
will definitely always last.
You smiled at me through warm rays of sun.
You laughed with me in the grass.
You kissed me in clear broken water,
And now we say goodbye.
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.
