Tribute To My Grandma
Avozinha
It’s not the same without you here,
I miss everything about you the way you always cared,
We are all falling apart now why did you leave?
Just let me know you’re alright give me a sign please,
Your house isn’t the same now you’re gone,
It’s so hard to get up and carry on,
My tears fall when I hear your name,
I recite your life through my head again and again,
I just want you to know the love I have for you is still strong,
It will never fade no matter how long,
It’s hard to sleep knowing you’re up there,
What did you ever do wrong it’s not fair,
I want to call you up and tell you my results,
And let you answer back telling me my faults,
I want to walk into your house and have you waiting at the door with my hug,
Ready to listen and share your love,
I think of you everyday,
Wishing I had more time with you and that I’d known what to say,
I am going to try and be just like you,
To love everyone and always tell the truth,
I miss you more than anything in this world,
You have always been here for me since I was a little girl,
Why did you go Alizi please come back,
We are not ready to let you go just yet.

what beautiful words from Julia. Its really so sad how Mum left the grandchildren so early. How much Mum would have enjoyed the exam results, the degrees, the holidays, the wedding and to see just how friendly the cousins are with their CuzClassix emails and messaging and parties together. Family is all to them and they had a great teacher. Mum definitely knows.
ajbn thanks for all your lovely reflections. Reading them on Sept 30th 2014
