Grandmother

Photographs of long ago

people and places of special quality
treasured in events of beauty and grace
poise and style carefully noted

crowned at the cat walk life is changed

living your dream of helping others
takes you around the world
where the sick and lowly seek you
with undying love

dignitaries take notice
rising to the occasion

support of family
creating their matriarch
now at four generations

loved by so many for what you've given
never taking for yourself

a way of life now a family business
dedicated to a mission of love

your life's masterpiece hangs upon the walls
you sit in a chair lost in the fog
waiting for God to take you
i love you Grandmother!
