Grandad
Dedicated to Grandad,
who had to go away.
The pain inside still hurting,
‘though we’ll meet again one day.
The laughter that he brought us,
the jokes that we all shared.
Times he was there when we were down,
they showed us that he cared.
The times we sat and talked,
the games we played together.
The memories he gave us,
we’ll keep inside forever.
Gone but not forgotten,
so near and yet so far.
He’s with us now in spirit,
in our mind and in our heart.
Dedicated to Grandad,
who had to go away.
He’s always here beside us
and we’ll meet again one day.
