Memories of smiling faces, <br />Life and death now trading places, <br />You'll always be here, to me, <br />Only difference now, is that you're free, <br />It hurts so much to know you're gone, <br />But I can't let that get, me down, <br />I see the path that we walked on, <br />And your footprints, are still around, <br />I remember when, <br />You took me in, <br />Gave me a home to come to, <br />And when I cried, <br />You told me I, <br />Always had a place to run to, <br />I know you'll always be here for me, someway, somehow, <br />And even though you left this earth, I've a guardian angel now, <br />I want you to know, through the good and the bad, <br />I was so blessed to have you, Grandad...<br /><br />Derrick Andrews<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-love-you-grandpa-r-i-p/
