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.
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...

In my rose garden of memories,
I see you standing there,
An angel in disguise,
Who taught me how to care.

The years will always roll on by

You had many things to say,
All in a caring way.

lives: a mother, a sister, and a
grandmother. No matter, what the love
we have for her is one. Ask anyone,

I walked over and hugged you all the time.

I'll tell you what it'd be
if you were close to yours
like mine was close to me

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.
Life gets very busy.
Things get in the way.
Do I have time to visit?
I'll go another day.

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.
A caterpillar walks in beauty
through the sunshine and the rain,
leaving sweet memories
to ease away the pain.
Grandma is one special angel, a
Really gentle, beautiful soul.
Angel of God, so pure and whole.
Never leave me, stay close by.
The funny beautiful lady
That means so much to me
May be gone from the land of the living
But with me she will always be

She made me smile every day.
And she was always there for me,
Especially in my time of need.

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.
You picked me up
And held me tight.
And said you loved me
Every night.

Have never been so clear.
All the lessons that you taught me
Still remain right here.

She hugs and kisses her loved ones at Heaven's gate,
Then shares with them the joy of her new found fate.
She goes on and on about the ones she left behind,
It's going to take a while, because she was Grams to all mankind.
