Grandpa

There it sat
As I entered the room
Perched next to her charge
I knew
the time had come

Her almond shaped eyes bore into mine

his sleeping figure
So peaceful and smooth
Knowing an angel is awaiting
As she rose with an arch of her back
Slinking beneath the white lined recliner

She passed with an image in those mirrors of hers
They spoke so simply
It’s good you’ve come
I watched
as she nudged my leg
And a soft purr is all she sang
As if to say
It’ll be ok
