Amma

A beautiful flower,
A perfect sunset,
A love so pure I'll never forget.

A Grandmother to cherish,
You meant so much,
A special love that death can't touch.

Thankyou for my childhood memories,
You made me feel special every day of the week,
And will always be the confidence in me.

Now you're my angel,
Now you're at peace,
May God rest with you, in eternal sleep.

hi x ray cat

This is a great hallmark or maybe even an epitaph but one thing for sure it certainly is a wonderful tribute ! Should you decide to work more on it then keep this for sure and try removing some of the first words of each line as much as you can you might and I might see it in a different light :) Truly, Mark Resilient Flexibility

for me it was just a simple

for me it was just a simple way of contributing to my nanna's farewell...yes very hallmark,and maybe now it has the potential to become more. but at the time i just wanted to say as simply as i could how she made me feel.

Feelings mutual

Sentiments so sweet and true as they ring in my ear for my Grandmother I also loved so much and I have written some of her that I have not put on here yet. There I noticed on the thankyou maybe a space in between the thank and the you. Other then that for me it was a beautiful poem of one so dear. Love, Magics02
