To My Grandma

I remember walking in the park

just listening to the birds sing.

Sitting on that bench,

watching dogs run and bark

and going on the swing.

 

We'd sit for hours and hours

just feeling the breeze.

I'd play with my friends

You'd, just smell the flowers

shooing the bees

 

Somtimes, you'd come over

and hold onto me

making sure I didn't fall.

I'd do flips on the bars and you would cover

my small little back carefully

 

Telling me "Be careful you're going to fall"

In that sweet sweet voice

I miss so dearly.

Always standing so tall

next to me

 

I knew I didn't need anyone else,

only you relaly mattered.

I've lived with you

for 14 years you see,

My love for you never shattered.

 

But this year I already feel,

is going to be a long one.

Because it'll be my first new year, birthday celebration,

Thanksgiving and Christmas

Without you, my dear Grandma.

My grandma just recently passed away and I had written this piece in my creative writing class. It was one of my favorite pieces and reminded me of the good times I had with her so I decided to publish it so I could remember forever.
