PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

We have missed him for so long

However, it feels as if he was never gone

I still feel the touch of his fuzzy mustache

And the way he always made me laugh

So carefree and so much fun.

He'd always seat me on his lap

And tell me stories of this and that

Although he lacked both of his legs

He would never let it get to his head.

He listens to the every word I pray.

It was long ago when he passed away.

I'll remember him everyday.

But his dreams were all fullfilled

So I know he left us happy.

He worked everyday to support his wife

Always until the end of his life.

He was my grandpa

And what a man

Never failed to finish his plans.

No matter what it took

The job was always complete

Being in his presense was a tremendous treat.

Everyday he'd find a different job

So he could pay the rent.

He would ride to the store in his handicapped car

No matter how close or how far.

He was a comendable man never to be forgotten

I know hes always here

He's in the crisp morning air

The cool chill that runs up my spine

Reminding me that hes always by my side

He'll always be in the presense

Thats never going to change

My gaurdians going to be there

Until my dying day.
