Watching television together is what we would choose, <br />viewing game shows and tasting dog chews. <br /> <br />Grandpa and I were very close, though we never played together, <br />our time together was grandiose. <br /> <br />Things for him I always brang, such as a cold glass of water, <br />or Park, NOT Tang! <br /> <br />Yes, there were times when he was a grump, but to me, <br />he never acted a chump. <br /> <br />Off he would go in 'John's Cadillac', his electric cart, <br />to get a thing or two from the local mart. <br /> <br />Very excited I would be when going to visit grandma and he, <br />despite the fact of me getting things for him, oh, he kept me as busy as a bee! <br /> <br />When I heard news of his death, I took a relieved breath. Better off he is with the Lord, <br />than to suffer in great discord. <br /> <br />It is because of grandpa that I love game shows. Watching 'The Price is Right' causes memories <br />of him to overflow. <br /> <br />I will always smile when I think of the time we tasted my dog's treats, I can't wait 'til in the <br />great beyond we finally meet.<br /><br />Greg Oosterhouse<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/game-shows-and-dog-chews/
