From that special place where
all grandmas go,
comes a trace
of your scent
stirring my heart…
Clove oil, flour,
soap, and noodles,
beloved dolls, pixie dust,
vintage photos, and lace.
As I breathe in your memory,
the old clock chimes “one”…
a reminder of the place
you held in my world.
Loyal, loving,
weaver of dreams…
Safety net, mirror,
mentor and friend…
Someday I’ll be
where all grandmas go,
with heavenly scents of
clove oil, flour,
soap, and noodles,
beloved dolls, pixie dust,
vintage photos, and lace.
There in His glory
you’ll be waiting for me…
with an inviting embrace,
laughter, and joy,
a place where I’ll finally be home.

Oh Michelle how beautiful...I was just browsing tonight and stumbled upon this wonderful poem. It made me recall the scent of my own grandmother and recall so many fond memories, yes my grandmother awaits me in heaven. I want my grandchildren to think of me and remember in such fond ways as you've described in your beatuiful poem.
Blessings my dear friend,
