Grandy's Poem(8/13/43-11-25-09)
Daylight seems to fade faster everyday
The true happiness of life becomes harder to find
Love is like fishing in the ocean; you only catch what can fight the
tumultuous waves
You have to learn that holding on to someone is a
necessity in this trial of life
Loving someone is a painful thing
Losing them is horrendous
So live for the day
Everyone will hurt you eventually
You have to find the ones that are worth the pain
Hold onto those that are worth it,
And Forgive those who aren’t
Cause life is short
We only have the time that God gave us
No matter how long, or how short
Don’t let the diminishing time cause the relationships you cherish
reduce to rubble
Cause when you lose someone, the pain is real
You find your self wishing for something else
For the truth not to be true, for the reality to be fiction
All that can be done is to bond together, become a closer family
Fighting gets you now where, let the love shine through
Remember that we all have to stay strong
We have to live this life in honor of him
Have to thank God for the time we had
Anger may fume, asking why.
Wondering the reasons.
But its more than the circle of life, maybe he wanted to go home for
the holidays and we can always see him in our dreams
His spirit will live on as long as we welcome it
So let’s lean on each other and not let each other fall
Lets love each other, and hold each other up
Family bonds don’t stay strong on their own
