leonard cohen sang me to the news of your passing grampa-
a melody for the tracks of tears to follow
there is no one story that i can share that summarizes 90 years of your life
there is only the sweet emotion of memory and calm that describes you to me.
i've long given up on memory to remind me of the story
i allow a single emotion to hold you close
as well as a snap shot of your hands.
so gentle and sweet you were-
with words of love
you'd respond
"i love you back"
i am sad but happy for you to finally be with your love again-
dad says you left us one day short of gramma's 7 yr anniversary of passing.
i find a beautiful melody of life and love in that.
you know i was with you and asked your angels to be there to greet you when you arrived.
i believe you have met your loved ones again
and i rest easy in that.
thank you for the wonderful father and brothers that you gave me along your journey.
i love my tangye men
as they are different parts of you.
