Hey everyone
It's just me today…err…tonight
Just learned the my Great Grandma died big shock for us all
Especially my mother seeing as it was her grandmother
Please excuse any mistakes in this seeing as I'm not the best at writing songs/poems and I'm trying not to cry
I remember long ago (1)
When I was so young
When I first saw you I wasn't sure what to do
You guided me with open arms
Even when you weren't there
You were a Bird ready to tell a tale of long ago
You always missed me and reminded again and again
That you were there and to never forget who you are
I remember long ago (2)
When you held me in your arms
And tell a tale of mommy when she was young
Now I've grown with a family of my own
But to this day I never forgot
I came when she was young
I came when he was young
Children say hello
To your Great Grandmother
I remember long ago (3)
When we came to see you again
We had to wind our way through the maze of the nursing home
You would always be nice and kind
You didn't always have gifts for us
Like the others did
But for some reason
I never truly cared
So when you did
Even if it was just Oreo's
I always accepted with the same kindness you showed me
You've lived long with a life to treat you kind
Now so close to 95
Just a little longer
But you're no longer bound to Earth
Instead you watch over your family from the heavens above
We will always miss you
So now go and rest knowing you lived your life long
Knowing we always loved you
And knowing you will not be forgotten for as long as I live
And so on and so on
Well thanks everyone
This is exactly a week from before I leave for Pennsylvania
Where the majority of my family lives
Im sure you noticed the numbers next to
'I remember long ago'
The 3rd one is centered on me the first two on my mother
And seeing as I don't know how she met her grandmother and how she lived her life
I just winged
So thanks to all those who have read this it means a lot to me
Once again thank you
