My Light In the Darkness
The times I will forever remember, are the ones I spent with my Grandmother,
she was my light in the darkness, creating warmth from the cold night
emptiness... Her spirit she imprinted upon my soul, she always saw a diamond
where others saw only coal... She created a safe place with fun loving care, for
just the two of us to share....her cooking I still smell, making me hungry but sad
as well.... Her patience with me when I was bad, never seemed to give way to her
being mad... She gave me gifts that I was unaware, such as love, kindness and
how to share... Her quiet guidance and easy talks , the sound of her footsteps
when we went for walks, looking back at the impression she made, I can find no
words to describe all that she gave... The empty void left by her love can only be
healed by our Lord above... I say goodbye, feeling my heart break, for there is no
other that can take her place... I have to smile even as the tears fall, for in my
eyes, she was 10 feet tall... I look toward the sky, I can't help but wonder why, it
hurts so much to say goodbye...My Grandmother, my friend, my childhood
playmate, My Light in the Darkness has gone away, but I will remember and love
her forever and a day.............
Go With God For You Have Earned It.......
All My Love Grandma Allen, Vickie
