Grandpa…
Pulling the soul back
to the day that seems forever ago.
Slowly here still wishing for the comeback
those chances set low.
Reminding who you once were
now that my name no longer exists.
For him it’s nothing but a blur
reading the remainder of life from lists.
Telling you all that has been achieved
despite knowing I’ll say it often.
Still pursuing the grieved
hoping maybe it’ll soften.
You still being here
the birds starting to explain the time is near.Voting is closed

Lexi, grandpas are such an important part of growing up as a little girl. They possess the kind of wisdom that we can learn so much from. I am sure that your grandpa would be proud of all that you have achieved and the love and memories that you still cherish from him. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.
