Yiayia Awakes in Heaven Today

Just before the break of dawn,
pots clang again to her morning song.
Yiayia awakes in heaven today,
bright and early as was her way.

Gather the angels and loved ones passed,
a special arrival -- here at last.
May all of her recipes be on display,
for Yiayia awakes in heaven today.

Let rumors spread of His newest angel,
whose joy and love is second to none.
Who welcomes all to sit at her table,
and tells the tales of those to come.

Her pride defies sin...for it is in others.
From friends to family...from daughters to brothers.
She loves us still...and more than ever.
And gladly embraces her final endeavor.

Start all the clocks; gather and be merry,
For summer has come, and the house is ready.
Beyond the door...with Rose in hand,
Inside Yiayia waits for us to land.
