Grandpa, You Are!

I Knew You Back;
When Times Were Innocent,
When Seeing You;
Was an Enduring Vacation,
But, Things Change Through the Years.


You Used to Ask,
"Who's the Biggest?"
"Who's the Strongest?"
I Tried to be,
But We Knew it Wasn't Me.


Nnone of Us Knew,
How Life Would Deal You.
You Were the Rock,
The One That We All;
Stole for Granted.


Counting on You;
No, Depending on You.
Then Irony Twisted Our Way;
Your Mind Gave In;
Ane Forever Our Lives Changed.


YouKnow I Love You;
I Always Will.
You are Superior.
You Are The Biggest!
You Are The Strongest!
