My angels up above

Dedicated to my grandmother Anne and great grandmother Pearl.. l love you guys so much.



I can’t tell you how much I wish that you were both here

There are times I just want to hold on tight to you

And just know that you are here.



I want to know you are proud of me

And can see what I am doing

But most of all I want to know you are close by



I would give anything to know you Nanny Annie

You were taken before I had a chance

A newborn baby I was



Its hard hearing stories of who you were

And I have seen photos of you

But nothing can compare

To seeing you in front of me

Some days I just think it is just not fair

They got to know you but I didn’t get that chance



I don’t know the sound of your voice or laugh

I do know I was your last photograph.

People are always saying

That we look a lot alike



My great Pearl of wisdom

My great grandmother I loved

I miss you everyday

It still makes me cry when I think of you

And I can’t see you.



I still remember the fun times

I still know your face

I cannot forget you,

You are written in my soul



I miss our deep connection

Those moments I made you lucid

And you understood what was going on

And knew who was with you



The day we lost you

I lost a part of my heart that can never be replaced

My heart has been broken and been mended

But there is part of the jigsaw

Nowhere to be found.



You replaced that void that was taken

When we lost our dear Annie

I fear no one can replace

The void you have left behind





I hope you both are guiding me

To where I am meant to be

I hope you both will be at my wedding

Or the birth of any child of mine

If I actually get that chance

I want to feel you there.



What I would do to have you

Both back here with me

But knowing I have two angels

Looking down at me

Gives me some relief



When people ask me

Who would you like to have at your dinner party

Dead or alive?

I always answer

My grandmother and great grandmother

It would be my greatest wish



I love you now and forever

These feelings will never change

Please guide me to where I am meant to be

This is no goodbye

But a, I will see you again someday

But really you have never left me

You are always in my heart.
