As the tears
Trickle down my face.
I think of all the times
We had.
I only remember,
The good ones we shared.
Because once you’re gone,
It doesn’t matter,
If you were a bad person,
Only if you were in my life

My grandfather passed about a year or so, This could in theory, a remembrance of him, persay a dedication. He was a real motivator in my life, although he lived 400 miles away. I loved him with every nerve in my body, and he always told me, I could do anything if I put my mind to it. So now I'm putting my mind to this poem. Heres to you.


Hope your looking down upon this writing from heaven,

Preston.

Your Grandfather taught you well! This is a lovely tribute. And surely he was a good person, the more so as you love him dearly.

Love,
Margherita
