Grandpa's Last Day

On a beautiful morning one day in May I went to my grandma and grandpa's to stay My grandpa fixed breakfast and fed it to me I felt so secure as I sat on his knee I ate every bite of my eggs and my grits For a snack later on we'd have cheese whiz and ritz Yet on this bright morning when the dishes were done We went out on the porch and sat down in the sun Grandpa picked up his paper and on that old porch swing He went in a flash to meet Jesus the King Before I got grandma I climbed on his lap Hugged him and kissed him then my heart felt a gap Although I was little I felt such a dread The moment I knew my grandpa was dead Though I miss him dearly I know where he's gone He's joyfully worshiping God at His throne I can't wait to see him I know he is there Praying for me to be kept in God's care Soon we will be Amazing Grace As we all live forever in that glorious place In Loving Memory of My Grandfather Frank J.
