A beautiful tribute to a Gran that loved you unconditionally. You can't ask for more than that from anyone. How lovely. I can tell the bond you shared was special and I'm sure you feel her aura wrapped around you when you bring out the porcelain doll. Well written and quite a nostalgic poem for you I'm sure. Cheers P x

    Ahhhhh this one is very special to me. She was a wonderful lady and I knew, no matter what I'd done, she'd see the good in me. That takes a special person. You're a wee gem girlie. I enjoy your reviews. :) Jaq xxx

Hi Jaq - I had a tear or two for this one. My gran was much my rock in my life too. A fabulous poem technically - but for me the emotion and love within it was far greater than any stars I could give you.
Excellent work.
Thanks for sharing it.
Maureen

Suggestion:
dreadfully - to me that work spoils the line "dread" yuck.

How would dearly work??

Solidly rhymed quatrains present a heartwarming tribute
to special lost loved one. Her cherished memory still
resides in keepsake.

Descriptively well penned poetry.
Rich.

This is so lovely to have such a memento as a reminder, some times all we have are memories, but you have a tune too, very tender poem...

You are going to make me cry. I had a similar strong woman as my grandmother whose "strengths were in the unseen realm". This is a beautiful tribute to a woman who I am sure amply deserves it!

This moving tribute to a lost grandmother is cast in an appealing ballad meter. The story is well-told, and the picture attractive. Well done all round!
