What a delightful poem! Your great grandmother sounds like a cool person. You did an excellent job painting a picture of her throughout the poem, making the last stanza really impactful. I especially like the line "in one badly wrinkled picture;" the bitter yearning for family members now gone is potent.
A lovely, heartfelt poem with a satisfying rhyme scheme. I can feel the love for Jessie-woo woo, as well as the bitter-sweetness of her near passing; she will no longer be in pain, but she will be greatly missed.
