Story

My name is Laura and my Grandma, Kathleen was an amazing woman. She sadly passed away due to bowel cancer which she had fought for so long. I am setting up this page just for small donations in her memory. I am also passionate about writing poems for different occassions and would like to offer my services to anyone who would like me to write one for them. All I ask in return is a donation on this page. Below is a poem all about my Grandma... 

The smile on her face when you walked through the door

Her cuddles so tight she couldn't squeeze any more

The heating on full so you worked up a sweat

The most kind and thoughtful person you had ever met.

Ovaltine, homemade chips and smacks

Currant cake, wafers and pataks curry wraps.

Her toffee tin full with lots of sweets

Taking time to decide the perfect treat.

Taking us to school, singing to tapes

Shaking the green tub to make yummy milkshakes

Coming to watch us in our school plays

Learning to swim on hot holidays

Not being shy of a camera phone lens

Using sheets on the line to make cosy dens

Throwing balls on the roof and getting them back

Being the rock and supporter of our Grandad Jack

Giving us a whack if we gave her some cheek

Playing bingo in the centre every single week.

We would sit in the back and watch the bonus ball

Then we would announce the winner in the main hall

Her great love of children and playing peek a boo

Until she got lost and played hide and seek too

Watching pingu, giggling out loud

Always having a smile every time we went round.

We were always treated to a bedtime treat

And you could never refuse something to eat

She loved a Lily O'Brien's selection box

And always curled her lovely silver locks

She showed us all just how strong

She had become and proved us all wrong

Now she has gone with the angels for a well deserved rest

Goodnight Grandma, mwah and god bless.

❤❤❤
