Dear Grandma

By Kristy (Preston) Newell

All through the years you've been there....
Each smile from you held dear..
I still can hear your voice..
Each I love you too...
Just as clear.

Every wild flower that I brought you..
Accepted as if it were a rose.
A grandmas love unfathomed..
as only heaven knows..

Sometimes I'd come to sit with you..
you'd always welcome me with a smile..
A hug was always waiting there...
a safe haven for awhile.

When it was time for me to go,
Id always leave with some advice from you,
there was always something new...
some little pearl of wisdom...
seen from your special point of view..

Now years have passed and it's almost time..
for God to call you home.....
Your ready for his sweet rest..
Never more on earth to roam.
Somehow it makes my heart ache just a little less..
Knowing you'll be in heaven with Judy at your side..
Walking with the Savior evermore to abide..
