A Visit From Gram

I savored her embrace, gentle but firm;
I could smell her perfume and hear her laugh.
I even got to dance with her again.
It felt so real––I didn’t realize it was a dream until I woke up.
But at least I got to say goodbye.

A Visit From Gram

Gram came to visit,
Hearing her laugh was heaven;
Even in a dream.

Missing Gram on Her Birthday

Gentle, wise and kind;

I miss her love and laughter.

I feel her spirit.

Missing Gram

Woke up feeling sad,

Really missing Gram.

Her spirit is around, I know.

I just wish I could call her and hear her voice.

Trying to remember that she's no longer in pain,

I just wish I could say the same.
