I see her lying down
I look down stunned
The more I see
The more it shines
I hope to feel
The light within
Before she parts
Before she faiths
I will see her shine
She will go with the stars
I will watch her go
As she finds her way home
But I will miss her so
But she would know
That we are one
And as one will go
I can see you now
As you travel afar
Even though you are far
Even now I can see you shine.

You loved your grandmother....and this is a sweet adieu to her. Thinking about it, reminds me of when my maternal grandfather died....I so missed him, and was only consoled by the thought that the Bible says "...to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord..." as well as, "....in Thy presence is fullness of joy...." and probably mistakenly (for I cannot now think I understood those Scriptures entirely correctly) was comforted in the thought that he was happier there than we ever shall be here. The image you used with it expresses your idea nicely.
