[hometext] => My gramother died on New Years Eve, 1999. She was the center of our family. I made a death bed promise to name my baby after her, and a promise made is a promise kept. I miss her but I have my little one....Hazel Louise.
[bodytext] => She lived with joy She cried tears of sorrow Looking forward to tomorrow Never regretting where she’s been Only missing now and then My Grandmother possessed a heart of gold In her arms you were never cold The time has come to say goodbye To let her go, to let her fly Heavy with child I lay there weeping I looked upon her as she lay sleeping She opens her eyes and beckons me near Her whispered words I strain to hear Granddaughter of mine you promise me this You will do me a favor and honor a wish When I pass this world please don’t cry Look toward heaven, look to the sky There is one more thing I want to say Don’t think of me gone- I am just away I will patiently wait for my family to come To embrace again each and every one I kissed her cheek and watched her go The pain, the anguish no one can know She left us quickly on New Years night She left us all without a fight Without her love to guide me true What now am I supposed to do Goodbye sweet Gram I love you dearly Your love for us I see so clearly On one long breath she closed her eyes We reach out quickly for last goodbyes Her soul took flight like that of doves Into the arms of the Lord she loves He called her home where she belongs Now the angels sing her song [comments] => 4 [counter] => 198 [topic] => 52 [informant] => Belinda [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => goodbyepoetry )

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. ©
