Our first year without you!
God holds you in his arms.......
I
have written a poem about my Grandfather that I think pretty much tells
what this man was like to us all.One keeps thinking that with each day
it will get easier, but it seems time is slower, with the pain of
our lost as deep!
"At
Arm's Length"
"He
stands at the window, hands on his hips.
Never
a cross word would pass through his lips."
"Grandpa
was a quiet man, stern but kind;
The
house was always filled with people,
but
I know he didn't mind."
"He
never complained of sickness or pain;
and
never would he take the Lord's name in vein."
"My
Grandma was his life & boy she made him smile;
When
she would gaze into his eye's;
he
became so juvenile."
"They
were completely inseparable, never away for long;
Always
laughter between them
even
if there were trials;
you
would never know there was anything wrong."
"My
Grandma is alone now without him as one;
But
she knows she will see him, when her life here is done."
She
ask's us "Where's Homer"?
And
we say 'God took him home to be with him',
then
she will smile, and not seem quite so grim."
"All
of our days are numbered and only God above knows when;
I
want to be with Grandpa & someday, grandma again!!!"
I
love you both so much and you are the reason that I am the "Christian"
I am today!! Thank you for your prayer's because you never gave up on me,
even when I did.....
