2 years ago tomorrow was the saddest day of my life. I want to pay a tribute to the woman that I hope God will bless me enough to someday have her wisdom and her love. Granny I love you and I will never ever forget you and what you did for me. You have always been and always will be my hero.....
I sat around and listened to 8 kids the other day.
I marveled and amazed at what they had to say.
My name is Karen, I've been around so long,
I am the favorite grandchild to think otherwise would be wrong.
The I heard him say, My name is Dwayne,
I am the favorite grandchild. I hold current reign
The third I heard her say, "My name is Sam."
I am the favorite grandchild just because I am.
The fourth He said my name is Ja
I am the favorite grandchild cause Papa blest me that day
The fifth said my name is De
I am the favorite grandchild because my blood runs through thee
The sixth he said with a big big grin.
I am the favorite grandchild my name is Ben
The seventh she said I am Sarahann wrap
I am the favorite grandchild, your all full of crap.
The 8th she said, I'm Becca Boo
I am the real favorite, who the heck are you?
What a special woman to make 8 kids all feel this way.
That is why I marvel and amaze at what they had to say.
I have written more poems for granny than anyone else. She is also the only one who I ever actually sat down and read them to all at the same time. This is the only one I have ever written for her that she did not hear.
When you are gone,
You will live on.
In everything I find neat
In every friend I great
In every stranger I meet
In my every heart beat
But my soul will cry
Tears that will not dry
Some days will pass me by
While I sit and ask why
But when you are gone
I will live on.
