My nana

My memory of you is so beautifully clear
Even though your body is no longer here

Your spirit surrounds me each and every day
Helping me through my life in so many ways

Your strength, your humour, the twinkle in your eye
Always wanting to know the how, when and why

You showed me that life is always there to live
And love is something to both receive and give

I feel so blessed that you are still by my side
Sharing my joys and inner feelings I try to hide

To have had you as my nana was so special to me
Showering us with your love for all the world to see

Your hugs may be gone but the feeling will last
As my thoughts of you are not only in the past

Your love lives on in a very special place in my heart
And it is a loving feeling that will never never part

You made each of us so special in our very own way
And that special feeling remains to this very day

My memories of you are a treasure so great
And I remember you most of all as my mate

So rest in peace my Nana, my beautiful friend
When I think of you four simple words I send

I love you Nana
