Unforgettable

My dear Grandmother
unforgettable angel
now heaven's treasure
memories of you flicker
somewhere in my broken heart

By Melissa Honeybee




*Dedicated to my Grandma, Phyllis who passed away on June 15, 1996*

~April 14th is her birthday~


"Unforgettable
that's what you are,
unforgettable
though near or far...

Unforgettable
in every way,
and forevermore
that's how you'll stay"

I love to reminisce of my grandparents ... a lot of fond memories that stay with me where ever I go ... a lot of teachings I apply each day ... a lot to thank them for

Melissa, I found this so very touching. Beautiful memories you must have, of a person you thought so very special. Keep smiling in your heart. Hugs and smiles to you.
