My Nana and I

My Nana and I

We were gardeners

my Nana and I.

Flowers grew

butterfly-like

around the garden

when the time was right.

We were baking freaks

my nana and I.

We laughed

happily -like

in the kitchen

when Nana Dale’s crumble was done.

We were swimmers

         my Nana and I.

We swam so much

Fish-like

to the end and back

Until we couldn't go no more.

We were fighters

my Nana and I

We  fought for her life

warrior-like

In the name of Love

But in the end we  lost.

We were gardeners

we were baking freaks

we were swimmers

we were fighters

my nana  and I

when Nana

was alive.  

So my Nana passed away on the 16th of December 2017 of terminal cancer they gave her a couple months but she shocked them with 6 years of survival. In loving memory Nana dale.
