Tribute to my Grannie's

After every two weeks i travel down to my mum's to see her, catch up with my siblings and just unwind.
Last Saturday was  one of those weekends, i traveled down, Precisely after dinner, my Mum asks me if i could make time to go down to the village with her for my Grand parents first anniversary...
I was too shocked and embarrassed that i couldn't remember the exact dates, it feels like it was just yesterday we were together... dining by the fire place(their favorite spots) the endless story telling. the laughter and joy!
time has just flown too fast i cant believe its already a year since they both passed on two months separate from each other.

I miss them. its from my Grand ma that i got very spiritual. she would make everyone stop  whatever they were doing to say a prayer...she was tough, hard working and very cheerful. no task was too hard for her arms, always moving about amid songs , Cheerful. tears did not know her eyes.
that's what i miss exactly,the warm energy she had. i identify a lot with her. she is a lot like my mum and i wanna be just like them

My Grandpa was a silent man.striking a conversation with him was little hard for me coz i would ask a question and he would instaed look hard at me before responding then he would say; 'its in silence that the lord speaks... too many words cause slander and hate, and ones you ultter a word, you cannot take it back.'
so be keen to calculate your words. Be wise. and then i would walk away...


I haven't grown much around my dad so basically my grandpa was my dad and my Grand ma, who was also an artist and my number one fan will always be my mentor.

i cannot find the right words to put together in their honor. am not even a words smith
but one thing i know for sure is that the world might have not known about you but u are the world to us, 
thank you for shaping my perception about life, my way of thinking and the cheer you to brought us.
i believe you are at a better place now as we celebrate your first anniversary.
