Joy
Joy died today.
That was the name of my grandma
- Is the name of my grandma
I'm not sure which tense to use
Her name, a homemade bread, sticks sweet to the tongue
Her personality, an open palmed hug to the child's name she cant remember anymore.
Her life, a monument to what it means to be kind and to be good
She does not own her name anymore
It has been given to the warm bread
It has been gifted to grandchildren
It has been remembered by those who remain
It has been remembered
Joy still lives, just, in other ways.
To Joy, wherever you now are.
