My Dearest Grandfather All the precious memories, with my grandfather I shared. He holds a place in my heart, because he always cared. He always knew what to say, when I needed a friend. And now I wish , more time I could spend. Hearing his stories, and watching him smile. If we could only be together again, just for a while. I’d tell him how much he’s missed, and how much I love him. What a wonderful man. There’s no one else above him. To be your grandson, truly makes me proud. We’ll meet in Heaven some day, upon a beautiful cloud. I have learned so much, from what grandpa has shown. My grandfather is one of the greatest men, I’ve ever known. |

This lovely verse made me think of my own Grandfather and my Father. If I can relate to a poem then I can enjoy it even more. Thanks for the memories! Dee |

How sweet this is. He is smiling on you wherever he is. This poem has a beautiful rythym to it...words are perfect. My grandfather has raised me and is like a father to me. He is very old and you have made me realize alot here. Thank You. Jenn E |
