From a place high above,
Where angels float in the sky,
To the very ground I walk on,
My Nanna watches over me,
Every step I take,
Leading me in the right direction,
Showing me the way.
Even though I know that she is in my heart,
I wish she could be here watching me,
As I develop into a beautiful young woman.
No matter what,
No matter how far away she might be,
She is still my hero,
For she has changed me.
The death of my guardian angel,
Was the hardest year of my life,
Even though she moved to the best place in the world.
I thought my life was over,
I did not get to see her often,
Because we lived so far away,
But even then she meant the world to me,
She knew no wrong.
Always wanting what was best for everyone,
Never putting herself ahead,
I've never met a better person,
To help me walk my way,
I never thought I’d get through this,
And still haven't today,
But knowing she’s always with me.
Makes me stronger in my everyday life.
You see, my Nanna died one year ago,
And how the pain hit me,
I thought it would never end,
But now her spirit is with me,
And I know she’s living a better life,
Sleeping with the angels,
In her comfy bed at night.
Sleeping With The Angels by Tanya E. Fowler
It's been one year on Saturday since I lost my best friend. It's been the hardest year yet and it doesn't get any easier. I miss everything about her, every single thing. The boys miss their Nanna Stella. Steven misses his nightly chats singing to her. One day Nanna we will meet again and you can sing to me, "all the breeze seems to whisper Louise". I miss and love you with all my heart.
I didn't write this poem but I did do the artwork. It is to the lyrics to the song below.

This song reminds me of my Nanna too
