Poet: Grandfather and Granddauther

How do you put down on paper what the times meant, when even though you lived them so much more was lived

The jokes, the laughter that only you two knew the meaning of


The words were different but the meaning was all the same


The greetings that only you and he understood


The love so strong that no barrier can or will ever break


You wonder why some others have it different


Then you know he made it different, he was there not just because you wanted it but because he wanted it too


You go not just for him but for you


The tears flow not only for those who didn’t make it but because he did


The man stands so tall, the white hair a little thin the eyes and smile his own


The world between a grandfather and granddaughter can be so different and yet so alike 


No words can describe their world for in it no words are needed
