My Grandpa

The one who was always there 
The one that always cared
The one that turned a rainy day into a sunny day
The one that chased away my fears
The one that washed away my tears
The one who helped me keep the faith
The one the helped me be who I am today
The one who spoke his mind
Helped me learn my wrong from my right
Set a perfect example for me
The one who helped make a house into a home
The one who never made me feel alone
The one who supported his family
The wise one of the bunch
Who turned a dim moon into a bright sun 
And never turned his back on me
The one with a free spirit
A spirit that will live in me for eternity
My grandpa 
A wonderful person
Never worthless
Sensitive with integrity
My grandpa
Who makes me complete
Without my grandpa
By my side
In my heart 
One of a kind
There wouldn't be a grand daughter like me
