Miss You
Her eyes were blue
Or were they green
I starting to forget
Or so it seems
I remember her smile
Her gentle way
I remember I'd sing
"Happy Birthday" today
She's been gone
So very long
but today I sing
That very song
She taught me to laugh
She taught me love
She taught me there was someone
Watching from up above
Together we'd play Rummy
We'd play Gin
When I caught her cheating at Fish
She gave me a sheepish grin
She told me her dreams
Of things she wanted
She never achieved
Her life was stunted
Today is her birthday
She'd be Ninety-three
It is a day, it's a shame
She will never see
Still I miss her
Our Poker nights
My sleep overs
Her radiant light
I love you Gram
I know where you are
For you live in my heart
So you're never far
