Use the following words in a story: Gravesite, balloons, pregnant woman, cold cereal, and an old book.

[Mark92]

The Passing

I sat at the gravesite, all sad and forlorn
It had been many years since you were born
I come here each year, to celebrate your day
I didn’t mind, it was a small price to pay
A few balloons an old book and a piece of iced cake
It was your birthday, and I loved to bake.
I will sit and read to you, as I always did
I’ll take out the cake, just like I did as a kid.
A pregnant woman the story was about
The mother of Jesus, I had no doubt
While I read, I thought about home and the farm
Cold cereal on the table, would come to no harm
I never knew you, I wish that I had
You would have protected me when things got bad
So I wish you happy birthday dear grandma
You were my leading lady. My guiding star.
