Grandmother

I wrote this poem when I was 17 years old. I found out that my Grandmother was dying from Colon Cancer. I loved my grandmother dearly, I miss very much. My Grandmother passed away on Easter Sunday in 2003 and I was so heartbroken.

Grandmother,

Its soon that you will become an Angel

If I could only get a Miracle

If you leave, I know for sure you will be caring for me

I will miss you from the bottom of my heart

My deepest feelings and my tears

If I sat quietly, wishing, praying that the mist of this pain would be swept away

I believe God has a better job for You at home

Without you it will be quiet, but I know that you are not in pain, quietly sleeping

Hold my head high as the mountains in memory of YOU

My memories will be so precious, my strength will be so strong

You will always be a woman with many lessons to teach

GOD, Please give me the miracle to SAVE YOU

In my eyes, You are not suppose to leave

Consciously, I know and understand

I love You Grandma
