In Memory of Mary Dean Arnold June 1, 1922 - October 29, 1994 Grandma I miss you I don't know what to do I couldn't visit you much before you died I am sorry for that I remember you watching me when I was sick Buying me presents Like a momma and baby duck That jump Cabbage Patch Kids book I'd look at a lot I would have visited more If I didn't have asthma And you didn't smoke Now I regret it And I sit Thinking why didn't I visit you more I should not have let my asthma get in the way But grandma I still loved you That is all I have to say Cold hands means a warm heart |

What a lovely tribute to your grandmother. The feelings come across well in this one. We can't live our lives regreting what we did or didn't do, we've got to know that they knew we loved them and believe that with all our heart |

As usual Julie, you write another of the best poems I've seen. What is life without poetry and adventure? |

This Poem Speaks!!! It speaks of your heart and the voice as read in this poem is perfect because I felt as if it was your voice. Your voice.... and that, my poet friend, I believe makes an excellent poem. God bless. -Bob |

I think you miss you Grandmother as much as I do mine. I too, regret not being there enough. It's so hard to say goodbye. I hope somehow she sees your poetic tributes. Sandra |
