I saw you in my dreams today, Grandma,
Your smiling face so full of love and light
I put my arms around you and held you so tight
For a fleeting moment you were alive again
The goal was to savor as much of you as I can
As I held on, I cried, “I wanna be with you. Please let me stay.”
I don’t wanna go back to a world so grey.
You lovingly and gently told me I would have to come back.
You smelled of lotion and coffee- black.
The room smelled of sizzling eggs and bacon.
Like you, they no longer make ’em.
I miss your loving hands and sweet kisses.
Without you, a big part of me is missing.
I miss you more now that I’m awake.
Waking up is indeed a hard pill to take.
Although at the moment, I’m sad
I’m so glad
I saw you in my dreams, Grandma!
Beautiful, just beautiful!
Thank you so much, Eleanor! ❤
Beautiful tribute to your nana. ❤️

Oh Cherie, this poem just simply warms my heart. 😥🥰🤗 What a beautiful and emotional message from the vision of your dream to how much you miss your grandmother so. 💞 She was a beautiful woman and I truly believe that when it is your time, she will be one of the many there at the Pearly Gates welcoming you home! 🙏🏽 This is a tear-jerker my friend. Absolutely beautiful! 🌹💐🌻

A wonderful dream and a lovely poem! I’m sure it was hard to wake up and let that dream go…
Thank you so much, Valerie. And yes, it was hard and I actually shed a few tears. ❤
Awesome tribute.
I had a very rocky relationship with my grandma’s. I’m glad yours was a treasure!
Aww 🙂
My grandma passed away recently, and Mom said she saw her in a dream last night.
It’s amazing how we dream of deceased loved-ones and how real those dreams are when you’re having them. ❤
When people I have lost show up in my dreams, on most occasions, I wake feeling as if I got to visit with them. It’s comforting.
It sure is. Yesterday I just missed her so much and ended up so happy after shedding a few tears.
❤️💕❤️
Lord, I hope that makes sense.
It does….😊❤️
She was a beautiful woman. Her eyes are so bright and lovely. An emotional poem. 🙂
Thank you so much, Terveen. 😊
