Dearest Grandpa

Drops of rain, splash at my feet Every time I see them I'm reminded of you Always working so hard and true Realizing that I held your heartbeat Every now and then your smile would creep Showing me the love that I knew Truest form of compassion as I cooed Growing up through the years Rain would suddenly give me a fright And this saddened me for many a day and night Never had I experienced these type of fears Don't you remember holding me and loving away my tears Paw Paw I miss you so much now; you making those delicious hash brown bites And although you're gone, I'll see you soon in Heavenly Sunlight For the "Sonnet Man's Acrostic Challenge" Written By R.M. Hunt a.k.a Robert Matthew Hunt Also I dedicate this poem to both my Grandparents A.W. Hunt-"Buddy" Howard Davis
