Remembrance

A poem about my grandfather after I lost him.

Remembrance

He was a great man

I was definitely a huge a fan

He told the best jokes

Some too dirty for folks

He made the best breakfast ever

He was extremely clever

He always had a bald head

"she's the good one" he always said

He would always pick me up from school

He was no fool he was pretty cool

I will remember the good and the funny things

I miss you and thinking about it stings

I know what a dirty magazine is because of you

You had a giant collection I secretly went through

It drove me nuts when you tickled my feet

He used to bring home fresh donuts as a treat

I got my G.E.D thanks to you

Something I thought I’d never get through

I fell in love with the music you listened too

Some songs would leave me breathless and some like goo

He is the main reason I love to cook

His food was always delicious, I liked how it would look

I love and miss him like crazy

I will never let my memories of you get clouded or hazy

Thank you for letting this wonderful man be in my life for as long as he could

I hope to see you again and this time, for good.

A wonderful poem for your Grandfather. I'm a grandpa. I love picking-up my grandchildren from the bus and the time I spend with them. I believe your grandfather was glad to have you too. Thank you Kimberly for sharing the amazing poetry.
