Grandpa

Grandpa
You were always the strong one
tall and proud and brave
You were always my favorite
but now you’re to close to your grave

One visit you were fine
healthy as a horse
The next you had deteriorated
60 to 0 was your course

I can remember driving
to the store with you
With the top down and wind blowing
nothing could have made me blue

When I went to see you
it was a smack in the face
My energetic grandpa
was gone without a trace

Your attitude held strong
but your body lagged behind
now ill never see you again
but you will never die in my heart or in my mind
