I feel your pain because just recently I lost my grandmother, and I still can't get over her not being here with me. So I really enjoyed reading your poem.

Yolanda

I can abosolutly feel your pain. I lost my grandmother on September 4, 2003. It was such a shock. You should listen to "Angel" and "I Pray" by Amanda Perez because they will help soothe your hurt and pain.

Kirstin

Kelisha

This poem, is very touching. It seems like it was yesterday when i got my phone call about my grandmother. Her death was also shocking, we were not expecting her to die, we gave a vacation of appreciation, she was alive for all the festivities and thank yous, but died a week later. This poem gave me a peace of mind. Thank you Healing Heart

Hello,Your poem was practically the same thing I did for my grandpa for when my grandma died December 9th,2002. I cried and cried she was so close to me and I had moved away when I was in 6th grade and I saw her over the summers but I never really got to say bye to her,I was in a great deal of pain and I think your poem was touching and helped me a little bit about accepting my grandmothers death Thank you

katie

your poem was very touching. it brought back this pain that is still so new in my heart. my grandma passed away on oct. 28, 2002. i miss her greatly. at times it seems as if she's still with us but other times reality checks in. i know she's in a much better place & im comforted by that. god bless her

i thought your poem was really great. i lost my grandfather about 5 years ago and i know how you must have felt. it makes you think about the importance of life even more. god bless you.

Erin

This poem says so much! It's wonderful! I know exactly how you feel. My Pepere (Grandpa) died last year on May 17, 2001. It has been extremely hard on me and I can relate to your poem very well. We will all see our loved ones again someday, when the time is right. Until that time, they will be watching over us with love. They never left. They are always here, remember that and smile while thinking of all the good times you had together.

nicole

I love this poem. It reminds me of how i felt when i had to bury my nanna bout 2 year ago. She was the best thing that was in my life and i still wont forget the day my mum phoned to tell me she'd passed away. I never got to say goodbye to her and i know that will haunt me for the rest of my life. This poem is everything i feel towards her.

This poem really touched me, i lost my grandmother a few weeks ago and i am just starting to realise i will never see her again and this poem helped me realise to remember her forever, and i will see her again. one day

victoria

i love this poem . you did a great job on this it.

Stacy

That is a beautiful and moving poem full of love and thought. My grandparents have always been mamaw and papaw to me and that is what my two young children refer to my parents as. It is very rare that you come across poems that refer to grand parents as mamaw and papaw. I was extremely touched by this and could easily see this being my family if anything should happen to my mamaw or my mom

leeanne

very nice poem, I know how you feel. my Grandmother and mother both died about 2 years ago(diferent month.5 months apart) At my grandmother's furneal I wrote a poem for her and the Reveran read it. it was very hard on me as I was the only grandaughter and it seemed as she knew it was comming.

kelly

this is such a touching poem for i lost my granpa and this brought back all the hurt i felt

Dale

very nice and sad as i can remember my gramma died on thanksgiving night it was hard to deal with and when somebody else looses a special person i feel very sorry that they had a loss i couldn't stop crying not even now i think she went happily that night. ;,(

Stacey

it's a great poem

melissa

A grandmother of all people would be the hardest person of all to loose because they are the ones you cherish forever in heart and in mind.Never forget that.
