Six months ago we circled 'round her bed
We cried and hugged, but not a word was said
The room was silent - hearts were full of grief
Our faith in Heaven was our sole relief
Some days we laugh and some days we just cry
We weren't expecting such a fast goodbye
She loved us all and wanted us to know
That she was tired, her soul was good to go
The coming weeks will bring a solemn mood
The fair, Fall Party, and Thanksgiving food
My dad might need some extra love this year
So hug him tight and he will feel her near
As holidays approach, it will be rough
Her candy, kitchen smell and other stuff
We all will miss her, and yes, that's okay
It helps us heal from pain we felt that day
This Thursday, Women's Ministry begins
I'd always count on her for laughs & grins
She very rarely griped like all the rest
Of course, her little "Pete" was just the best ;)
She's in my heart and with me all the time
And even closer when I hear bells chime
She showed me love that none can take away
I'm thankful that we'll meet again someday
~ I love you, Grandma ~
xoxo,
Sarah
