to my Nan:

Nan, I didn’t get a chance

to tell you my goodbye.

God took you very suddenly

Sadly, I don’t know why.

I thought of you with love today

but that is nothing new.

I thought about you yesterday

and days before that too.

I think of you in silence

I often speak your name.

All I have are memories

and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is my keepsake,

With which I’ll never part.

God has you in his keeping,

I have you in my heart.

all My Love Emily xx
