Sunday 160 - Grandma Trudy



She lays in silence.

Expressionless.

Looking as she always has, but not.

I am a 29 year old boy.

I reach out to touch her one last time.

Cold.

Goodbye, Grandma.

Aye, It weren't that long ago that me granny of 105 died. I felt the same way.

TWM - This happened a number of years ago for me, but the 'touch' was an experience that has stayed with me since.

How lovely this is. Truly.
