You lived your life with respect
Pride and dignity.
You were so strong and yet soft spoken
Part of you lives in me.
I'll never forget how your face glowed
when I would walk into your home
so warm and inviting
never discriminating or speculating.
You were liked by so many
and loved by everyone.
Everytime I would go to leave
You hugged me with all your mite
and would kiss me on the cheek
I know you'll come to see me
every day and every night
when I feel that warmth around me
I know you're kissing me good night.
RIP Grammy Doris
