Clothed In Grace

my granny

Clothed in grace she gently moves.

 Peace and love lace her shoes.

Heaven’s favor guides her steps,

And that same nectar is her scent.

Her smile is gentle and her eyes the same.

And her prayers are humble as she makes her claim.

Wow, she must be such a perfect Granny.
I knew one of mine for a few years in NY....
This reminds me of her.
My dad's mom.

Such a beautiful and delicate piece of brevity dear Cherrie. I have an image of your granny planted in my mind. May 2024 be kind to you as you learn to live with your deep loss.
