A LETTER TO OUR GRANDPARENTS

June 26 and September 4 will never be the same,
Now what we have to hold is literally memories that remain,
Although all good with so much laughter and fun,
Reminiscing on Nana always winning bingo
and us all looking stunned,
definitely a special woman, who was blessed by the Lord,
it showed in all she did without even uttering a word,
Our granddad a man that was respected by many,
He stood his ground and was seen...

Thinking of you Nana
I thought of you with love
today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
I think of you in silence.
I often speak your name.
All I have are memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake,
With which I'll never part.
God has you in His keeping... I have you in my heart.

I'm sending yall a dove to Heaven
with a parcel on its wings
be careful when yall open it
its full of beautiful things
Inside are a million kisses
wrapped up in a million hugs
to say how much I miss yall
and to send yall all my love
I hold yall close within my heart
And there yall will remain
To walk with me throughout my life
Until we meet again....
