A Grandfather I Never Saw

Five days before I was born, my dear grandfather was gone. Not knowing the cause why he went . There was a pause through which i was sent oh father! oh father ! cried my mother . Was it to take him Oh god! you sent me without a word i thought By came an old woman whose hands were weak and swollen. She said with a smile- When one light goes mild , another light will shine. then i knew - Even though i never saw him, he lives deep in my heart where his soul never dies.
