Warm Hugs


Ms. Connie who spreads love with a smile

and gives warm hugs

who is blush and long denim skirts

who is bible stories and proverbs

whose eyes are calm

who says love ya babe before we leave

who says God bless you when we sneeze

whose back is bowed

Can’t make it down the stairs

lays in bed all day saying prayers

who used to play and like long walks

is ill

is Grandma’s button box in the car

is frail be careful

doesn’t take us on adventures anymore

is in my heart forevermore

who reminds me of what God said

is rainy days and crafts and mint

who cared for me for many years

is the love in my heart when I saw her smile

gave warm hugs

no more warm hugs...
