Grandma Bea

First off, let me say, I love this woman to death, and this is a tribute to her. She was wonderful. I have great memories with her, counting pigs, being teased about kissing boys, and lots of others. She was such a sweet kindhearted lady. But I send her no prayers, or tears as I will soon explain. This morning my mom came in and told me the situation with her. I almost cried and then I started thinking. A few things came of it, one being the following poem

Grandma Bea

for her, I'd send my prayers

but she needs them not

as she ascends the pearly stairs

to find the place that god has got

for her, I'd send my tears

but she needs them not

for her now, there are no fears

up to heaven to find her spot

for her, I'll send my love

to her and Grandpa

in their place above

you see, I loved Grandma

but she lived a long life

happy and free

sure there was strife

but in my small self, I want to be

as much like her as I can

I'd even love pigs

and I'd marry a man

Who fishes up there with the bigs

so all the world can see

the imprint this wonderful woman

left on me

and if I can

show you her big heart

you know that I will

I'm sad we have to be apart

but above, she's in a better place still

and for her? I'd write a song

but for someone like her

it's be much to long

so i'll stick to this poem, Of that I'm sure

I will love you forever Grandma Bea!
