My grandma
She made me laugh
She made me cry
And made me laugh again
She taught me values
She taught me love
And her fiery spirit too
She showed me music
She showed me literature
And showed me love once more
She gave me strength
She gave me honesty
My grandma gave me life
The one thing that
I wish she taught me
Was how to get through life
When she was gone
In loving memory of Barbara Anne Langlois

Your poem was Beautiful!
Publishing never even crossed my mind. I really never even posted about my heart disease. I recently signed up on Facebook and found a lot of old friends and most of them didn't even know I was sick. So instead of telling the story over and over I decided to blog it. Plus friends and family are always asking me how I'm doing, this gives me an oppurtunity to post updates on my health. So I decided to tell my whole story and what better time then the month of Feb. National Heart Disease Awareness Month.
If you would like to write a poem about the heart as an organ and as a figure of love and life I would post it on my blog and give you credit and link it to your blog.
It's up to you. I don't want you to feel pressured. Just as long as you do it this month. Just email me the poem if you'd like to do it.
