"She had more then the 5 senses
she knew more then books could teach
and raised everyone she touched just a little bit higher
and all around her there was a natural sense
as though she sensed what the stars say
what the birds say
what the wind and the clouds say
a sensual soul [...]
and she raised me like she raised 4 of her own
and i was hurt and scared and shocked when my Grandmother left suddenly one night
and they sent a limousine from heaven to take her to god"
