Love Poem: Heart of Gold

Heart of Gold

I met a sweet lady today

who has a heart as big

as can be.

She has a heart

of gold.

She was all and more

of what I had heard

about her.

She made me feel

so at ease, as I talked

with her.

She raised her son Dale

right, with old fashion

ideals and morals

grounded into his

soul.

She has been through

some rough and sad times

as of late, but this dear lady

still marches on,

because she has a heart

of gold that refuses to

give up and yield to defeat.

She helps others, before she

thinks of herself.

She really reminds me of my

own mother, this is why

I admire her so much, with

just one meeting I learned a

lot from this fine lady.

She gives out love just

as my own mother did,

this lady was and is my

Grandson Brandon's other Grandmother,

and now I can see where he

gets the love that sparkles

in him that he tries to give to others,

I will say one thing, I sure

am glad that I got to meet

this lady with a heart of gold.
