 You Surely Will Be Missed Grandma

My grandmother’s life here on earth 

Was giving and very true, 

She would give a ride to a stranger 

As they were down and blue. 

She loved to gamble 

And go on trips. with friends and family,

When she had a plan, her mind was set 

And off she went to see. 

She would travel the world,

With her cousin Bunny,

And have herself a blast,

Those two were inseparable, 

As time surely did pass.

When I turned Twenty-one

She took me to Las Vegas, with my mother,

It was a trip of a lifetime

One like no other.

She taught me how, to play cribbage 

When she could not teach my mother,

I was able to count those cards so quick

I was able to then teach others. 

My math skills were not that great 

But when I soon got that twenty-nine hand,

My grandmother and I were both astonished 

As we saw those cards land.

My grandmother had a lot to give 

Although she did not have a lot, 

Her friends would count on her

Whether she gave them rides or not. 

I learned a lot from my grandmother 

Ever since I was a child, 

From her knowledge to playing games

Or just traveling and going wild. 

Rest In peace Grandma

Your Grandson, Troy.

She past away Saturday March 12 2022
