Grandparents

These aren't my grand parents by the way.

Hello and welcome to my second contest. This one is about your grandparents. Whether they are still with you today or not. A tribute or a memory, anything about your beloved grannies and grandpas because you never know which will be your last hug, or bit of helpful life advice. I never got to meet my grandpa but have heard stories from my Dad and have learned throughout my life that he is a true hero. Cherish your time with them.

Rules:
*No swearing, erotica ect.
*Try make it happy and uplifting
*No more than 35 lines unless you are sure that it is very very good. If so message me and tell me so I know.

With this I want you to get creative so any style, preferably free writes. Let the ideas flow.

Good luck to everyone!!!
Thanks,
Animals

    You’d open your door when the bell we’d ring,
    And tell us to sleep while we were tired.
