Though you are both gone
From this Earth;
There's a gift you gave me
At my birth.
It fills a place
In my heart.
I felt it there
From the start.
You passed to me
Your wisdom, kindness, honesty.
And the passion
For writing poetry.
I cannot tell you
Just what that means.
The flutter of a Butterfly
Will always be
A beautiful sight
And the symbol of your memory
In my soul and in my mind.
In my heart
I will always feel you there,
Because a Grandmother's Love
Is the everlasting gift you shared.
Thank you for your examples & legacy.
Thank you for inspiring me.
Thank you both for sharing your life
Through written words and poetry.
And thank you both for your
Grandmother's Love you left with me.
