Grandma’s Somethings

Something she needed.
Gathering sticks with a clackity clack.

Something she knew.
A rake with handle true.

Something she loved.
Crisp, fresh air.

Something she did.
Feeding burn barrel natures spares.

Something she taught.
God loves you.

Something she chose.
The right voices for reading Oscar the Grouch.

Someone I will never forget.
Grandma.

Grief/Infant and Pregnancy Loss Awareness Day

Original drawing and poem by Mary Grace van der Kroef

Grief

When you long

When your strong

Though you’ve lost

Know the cost

When there’s hope

Through grief you cope

When one is gone

Yet life goes on

No

This grief is never wrong
