Lois (grandmother)
by Joel Howard

Grandmother
Steadfast, faithful and true
I’ve never had a grandma like you
You taught me kindness
Mostly from afar
But I’m ever close to you
Close like a star
Whose bright inspiration
Reaches my heart
Though you are distant
You’re close to my heart
Guiding me nightly
You shepherd my heart
