Momma working day and night.
Brother and I never getting to play.
So you took us in, and our lives changed.
Windows open all through the house.
Spring air blowing all through.
We talked and laugh filled with glee.
You were always Granny.
I, well I was always Jar Fly,
or Your Precious Angel.
You go to work come morning light.
Brother and I off to school.
You stop at the end of the road.
Letting us go into the store for a quick bite.
~Running~Laughing~Playing~
Papaw cooking everything with tobassco.
Us eating those never ending rolls of bologna.
The chicken pox visited our house.
All the kids in the neighborhood, lotioned,
and laying in front of the fans.
~Growing~Singing~Humming~
The blazing sun, always so hot.
Brother and I swimming a lot.
You never forgot to let us play.
Sleeping with you on long, cold nights.
~Skipping~Giggling~Climbing Trees~
Our yard was never really tidy.
Our house never clean.
Cooking soups on the old wood stove.
You taking us skating.
~Smiling~Loving~Remembering~
I am filled with such overflowing love.
For you my Granny, you are now my Angel.
I love you so much, because you were there.
Yes, you were there throughout it all.~~

jd4georgeover 19 years agoIn terms of the poem itself, consider reworking the last verse. Though it is how your heart sings her memory, the poem seems to need a stronger ending.
You might also consider trimming a little bit, here and there.
I enjoyed the read.
