Happy Birthday Grandma its been 2 years since you've been gone
And its been sad without you
leaving us all alone

But how could I ask a beautiful woman like you to stay behind
When in deed you have served your time

I remember it like it was yesterday
Us being at your house in the wee hours of the day

To see you waking up cooking your breakfast
with your Frosted Flakes and your Pet milk

Oh Grandma how I missed your Upside down Pineapple Cakes
and the memories of you being outside with your rake

Or how about when you would watch your soaps
Oh when me and my sister would get on your nerves you wanted to hang
us with ropes

Or what about the time you would send us for some candy
Man I tell ya those were the days man we was so happy

I love you Grandma nobody could dress like she could
She loved her hats and her pocketbooks to match wishing I would

Be stylish like her
She was the coordination woman thats what she prefer

And then years came by and you became sick
And the love for your children all nine kept you to a tick

And then the Tock came and we just couldnt except
That the once vibrant beautiful curvy woman has reached her depth

Grandma was tired but we wanted her to hold on
Because we didnt want to be all alone

So she held on for one more year
And then I began to hear the tears

Mama may not make it she say she ready to go
But for the love of our family grandma remains afloat

And the day we all dread the day she had a heartattack
I prayed and prayed for her safety and she would be back

But my prayers werent answered she passed on that morning
And then I got the phone call and begin to be in Mourning

Because I just didnt want to see her go
I just wanted her to know

I love her always and Im sorry if I ever disappointed her
but it didnt occur

But I'm glad she no longer have to suffer or put up with the ways of this world
Because she with Granddaddy his Baby Gurl

So I want to say Grandma whereever you are hope your looking down on us
Promise that you want make a fuss

But will forever love us the way we are
This is dedicated to my Bright Shining Star

Happy Birthday To my Late Grandmother...........
