Post subject: | R I P Grandmother. |
Here is the poem written by my daughter, Charlotte, for her grandmother, Vera's, funeral: Re Vera (Latin for 'In Truth') I won't cry for you – You're no longer in pain I'll cry because I'll Never see you again. I'll cry that I miss you, I'll cry now you're gone. I'm sad that you had not The strength to go on. But I'm not sad for you, You are finally free. You're with all your friends And you're with family. You're up there with Grandpa, Kate and Peter too, With Edith and Audrey To take care of you. They'll love you and keep you As safe in their hearts As I will until We're no longer apart. It's their turn to have you, We've kept you too long So I'll try not to cry Just because you are gone. Age cannot stop you, You're free from its chains. No more will you suffer Its cruel aches and pains. I'll cry because I miss you And need the release But I won't cry for you, I'll be glad you have peace. Though you're not here to hug me Or dry all my tears. I feel blessed to have had you Almost 40 years. So sleep well dear Nanna, For now you must rest. You'll always be with me, I will never forget. © Charlotte Cooper 2015 |

A very poignant moving piece. I find it sometimes helps putting sadness into words. |
