This came to me in my sleep:
Grandma Phelps Inspired:
Paintsville Kentucky holds my whole heart
A woman who loved me right from the start
Under a tree and high on a hill
Is where she was placed to be still
Next to Grandpa Jay she was finally free
She wrote it in rhyme that is where she wanted to be
I miss her every day and in every way
I would give anything for just 1 more day
To hear her laugh
Or tell stories of her past
I was too young to know this hurt would last
I will be with her one day again soon
Do not cry for me here I am in Paintsville too
Not via body for I am dust in the wind
But via mind and with her again.
