Array ( [sid] => 55423 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Final Farewell [time] => 2004-07-09 01:08:18 [hometext] => This is another poem that I was asked to write. It took me a month to finally find the words. I hope you like it. [bodytext] => Dear Child of my Child,

As these words find there way to you,
I want you to know ~ I loved you too,
I wanted so much to hold you close,
To tickle your belly and get your nose,
To read you stories and tuck you in,
To kiss your boo-boos o’er again,
To help you learn your ABC’s,
To count your fingers 1-2-3,
To hear you sing and see you dance,
To know your heart by a glance,
To teach you things only grandma’s can,
To give you strength by holding your hand,
I wanted to spoil you and hear you laugh,
I wanted to be in your past,
I wanted to help you grow up strong,
To help you learn right from wrong,
I wanted you to know me too,
To pass me on by loving you,
But my darling little girl,
I can’t be in your world,
We’re going to miss those special days,
When grandma’s and little girls run away,
We’re going to miss a lot you see,
But with you I will always be,
I’m in your blood ~ I’m in your past,
These family ties always last,
Always know that I am proud of you,
Remember Dear ~ I love you too.

Dear Child of my Child,

As these words find there way to you,
I want you to know ~ I loved you too,
I wanted so much to hold you close,
To tickle your belly and get your nose,
To read you stories and tuck you in,
To kiss your boo-boos o’er again,
To help you learn your ABC’s,
To count your fingers 1-2-3,
To hear you sing and see you dance,
To know your heart by a glance,
To teach you things only grandma’s can,
To give you strength by holding your hand,
I wanted to spoil you and hear you laugh,
I wanted to be in your past,
I wanted to help you grow up strong,
To help you learn right from wrong,
I wanted you to know me too,
To pass me on by loving you,
But my darling little girl,
I can’t be in your world,
We’re going to miss those special days,
When grandma’s and little girls run away,
We’re going to miss a lot you see,
But with you I will always be,
I’m in your blood ~ I’m in your past,
These family ties always last,
Always know that I am proud of you,
Remember Dear ~ I love you too.

Great Grandma

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
