~~~~Echoes Of Grandpa~~~~©
You've always been quite a trooper
Grandpa Willow,
you taught me such a lesson
how i admire you so.
Be strong you would whisper
and stand your ground,
don't let hard knocks
in life take you down.
But Mother Nature
had other plans it's true,
with one deep breath
she took you.
But your spirit
still lives on,
for you sway me to sleep
when things go wrong.
Now when Grandma Cherry
begins to weep,
your joyful song will echo
so when her time comes:
she too can sleep!
