[hometext] => This is a re-post from another name i had here......This is my tribute to my wonderful Gramparents, they taught me alot about True Love, Life, Happiness, and Pain....
[bodytext] => I was a little baby with blonde hair, blue eyes
My grandpa was beautiful, he never told lies I sat on his tummy, and pinched his cheeks I brought him his slippers each morning for his feet I leaned down to kiss him, but there was no sound That morning in that house, he was Heaven bound.. My grandpa had passed, and i looked up to the sky I didnt understand, but i was looking for the Angel's to fly My grandma she fell to the floor, on her knees she did weep Twas his love she made a vow, she'd eternally keep Shaking and trembling, not knowing what to do I looked up at my grandma and said, I Love You It all went so fast, there were no angels in sight I was only 3 years old in that big house that night I knew my grandma would never in her life be the same Twas the love of her soul mate, she kept saying his name Years went by, other family member's souls flew But his love stayed in her heart, for she always knew His name on her breath she spoke the next 26 years Still with much pain, and so very many tears By lantern at the table my grandma always wept Singing my grandpa's favorite song, "Rosewood Casket" Every member of the family would gather around We were all so quiet, not one of us made a sound I'm that little baby, all grown up now And to my grandma i made a vow This vow i made to her in sacred privacy My grandma was the only one who understood me I was sitting by the lantern one night I whispered softly to her, your love i'll keep tight Songs i will sing i promise for the both of you I will keep your love alive, to you i will stay true Grandma kept him alive till time for her death She even whispered his name, in her final breath On the day of the funeral i swore to them both That i wouldn't hover over that ground, I'd leave, I'd go Buried next to him she lays, and now they are together I have the both of them deep in my heart forever That's why i sing, i told my grandma this To keep their love alive, her love and his Singing i learned from my Grandma way back Keeps your heart from dying inside, from turning black Their grave i can never return no more I'd break my vow, then i'd forever be torn - I Love You Both- W.M Born Jan 3,1899 Heaven May 28,1972 E.M Born April 2,1917 Heaven Jan 7, 1998 [comments] => 8 [counter] => 270 [topic] => 38 [informant] => OreO [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 30 [ratings] => 6 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Tributes )

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. ©
