A tiny grey haired lady
Smiling whenever we met
Always pleased to see me,
Time well spent.
A weaver of tales
Of murders long ago,
Braids of many colours,
Just like Josephs coat.
But I never heard her sing
We only got to talk.
I miss her geniality
Her thoughtful tenderness,
Without my adopted Grandmother
I can really be a mess.
This is your first Christmas apart
Terry,
I want you to know my thoughts are
with you here within my heart.
