In Memory of Grandma G

Background: my grandmother on my mother’s side, fondly known as “Grandma G”, was an amazing woman. She was very kind with everyone she met, especially her family. This poem is dedicated to my grandmother. She is greatly missed by her entire family.


In memory of Grandma G


Her hands,
always there to offer a hug,
or congratulations
on a job well done.

Her eyes,
full of compassion
towards everyone in her life.

Her heart,
warm and kind
especially strong towards her family.
There was nothing in the world
more important to her than family.

Her spirit
full of love towards everyone
who was lucky enough to know her.

Her mind,
still as sharp as a needle,
even in the last days.

Her body,
full of pain
but was comforted when she went to meet her Lord.
