For Nanny with love, for many precious years
Of joining in laughter and drying up tears,
For prayer and encouragement, tender and true,
For the times of welcoming with "I love you."
A beautiful heart given beautiful hands
To pour out her love and fill up all demands.
Short in stature; a fearless warrior and bold;
Every life touch'd will miss her wisdom of gold.

Notes
I wrote this for a very dear older lady that passed away just a few days ago. She was my cousins' grandmother and dearly beloved by everybody that knew her. She will be greatly missed. I wrote this for her family, and thought I would share it with y'all.

Thank you very much, Homey.

I don’t thrive off of chaos: chaos thrives off of me.
This is really sweet,
This is really sweet, wonderfully worded, and very emotive. It paints a picture of Nanny through her actions, and the reader is given a very distinct sense of who she was. This is a lovely tribute! My favorite lines:
A beautiful heart given beautiful hands
