In Loving Memory

48

By angelenastanford

 

Your presence is still here,

Your beautiful smile,

Your nurturing soul.

All of your stories.

Your love for animals—

Your cats.

Your beliefs,

Your beautiful mind.

Your old fashion, antiques, and make up.

The china still hangs on the walls.

Your family was more important than all.

Everyone and everything,

You put before yourself.

The time you volunteered,

And the endless shopping trips.

All of your photographs still remain.

You were here for a second,

Now gone forever.

                                4.17.10

I love you Nana,

Not a day goes by

When I don’t think about you,

Or when something reminds me of you,

Or simply when I just feel you watching over me,

And your presence almost within my reach.

A loving tribute to your Nana, blessed you are. I know my kids loved their Nana and she passed a few years ago, leaving them with wonderful memories. May you Nana RIP and be in the arms of God.

It's always so very wonderful to remember someone so loving and dear to you... Jesus Chist said: The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out,God remembers good people and certainly their name,but most important remember she's burden free from pain.. I love your poem
