A Poem For Grandma

A Poem for Grandma
There are moments in life when you miss someone
So much, you just want to pluck them from
Your dreams and hug them for real.

When the door of happiness has closed, another will open.
Let us not spend too long staring at that closed door,
that we don't see the one which has opened for us.

We are all together, celebrating someone who made us smile,
Someone who made our dark days seem bright,
Someone who made our hearts sing.

Grandma would tell us to dream what we want to dream,
Go where we want to go,
be who we want to be,
Because we only have one short lifend one chance to do all the things we want to do.

Grandma had enough happiness to make her sweet,
enough tries to make her strong,
enough sorrow to keep her human
and enough hope to keep her happy.

The happiest of people don't always have;
the best of everything,
They just make the most of everything and everyone who come their way.

You have touched so many lives,
in your own special way.
Your spirit lives on in all of our memories,
And within all of our hearts.

We won't be counting the years which pass,
But counting all of the wonderful memories
you have left us to enjoy.

Grandma, thank you for all those memories!
