She’s Looking Down

By: Daliah Begay

My grandma is like a rose

Always bright

Like the sun

When it set high in the sky

My grandma and I

Had rocky parts

But we loved each other

With all our hearts

My grandma had white hair

She was small but had the biggest heart

My grandma was a big part of my family

When someone was down

She would tell them

You gotta keep your head up

Through the hard parts

Now I miss the entire thing we used to do together

I miss her laughter

Her smile

Her jokes

And most of all

Her being there for me

But now I know she is

Way up high in the beautiful blue sky

Looking down

At my family and I and just smiling!
