*Grandma Cookie*

You were truley our angle on earth,
always shining your inner beauty,
Into all the hearts of those around you,
Now you are shining into our hearts from the clouds above,
From the beautiful ski's of heaven,

You touched people's hearts if you only knew then a second,
Or if they were part of your family,
You left a pair of footprints in our hearts,
That will remain through out eternity,
Our days ahead will be filled with loneliness and sadness,
But you will be shining your angel wings from above,
Making us feel so sucure,

If we look into our hearts,
We will see your face and know that we will be okay,
For you have created so many special and loving memories,
You were there in times of sadness and in times of laughter,
No matter what you were always there for us,

You never held onto hate,
You never hated people,
For you always had this capacity to forgive,
That is one of the many reasons why you are our insparation,
And you will always be so,

When things in life felt unbearable,
You would guide everyone to this bright light,
And you light continues to shine into our hearts,
Giving us this streangh,

For you were our angel on this earth,
And now you are our angel on heaven,

When we were in you presence you could light up a room,
Because you had this inner beauty about you,
Now heaven is a more beautiful place,
Because you are there,
Just like you made our world a better place,
For that is what angels on earth are all about,

You watched over us on this earth,
And now your watching over us from the heavens above,
You are truly our wind beneath our wings,
Our inspiration and our angel for eternity,
This is not good-bye,
For soneday we will meet again,
In the meadow fields surrounded by beautiful flowers,
And the beauty of being with our special angle again,

Thank you for being the one to watch over us on this earth,
And for continuing to watch over us from heaven,
We will never forget you,
We will carry you in our hearts always,
For we will always cherish the sweet memories of you,
For true angels on earth and in heaven,
Are never,
Never forgotten no matter what,

For you were our angel on this earth,
And now you are our angel on heaven.

    Remember to put your AP name in the author notes.

    This piece is just beautiful, and you truly did what I asked - you made me love this person. Which makes it even sadder, that this person is no longer living on this earth.
    I really like this piece, but there is a LOT of spelling/typping errors, so you should go through it. There's too many for me to point them all out!

    Wonderful,

    My grandfather passed away, and I like hearing about how other people thought of him. I love that you had such a good relationship with your grandmother when she was on earth. It sounds like she was a very kind and loving person; you should be proud to have her as a grandma.

    Beautiful

    Wow this really is a stunning tribute to her, it was so loving and warm, she would have been so proud to hear it read =] I'm really sorry for your loss, I recently lost my Grandad and also read a poem at his funeral, I know it's not an easy thing to do. I hope you felt all the better for doing it though, telling everyone there what she meant to you =] It's really touching she was so inspiring to you.

    All the best, and good luck =]

    nice line. the first sentence has one spelling error (wew) but its nice. i'm not one for poems like this in general but it was written quite well and flowed beutifully. she sounds like a wonderful person.

    For true angels on earth and in heaven,
    Are never

    beutiful and true
    very true
