Joan Donnelly Ellis Poet Verse

Note To Grandpa

NOTE TO GRANDPA 
        by Joan Donnelly Ellis published in Today's Smiles Anthology

 Grandpa I heard you and Daddy yelling 
 And now you don't come down
 And Daddy doesn't smile much
 That's 'cuz you're not around
 We all love you Grandpa
 'Specially Daddy and me 
 I thank God for you every night 
 So visit soon and please hurry

 Cross my heart I love you Grandpa
 Even when you get cross
 I s'pect it must be real hard
 To let Daddy be the boss
 I know you used to have that job
 A long, long. long time ago
 But Daddy's all growed up now, Grandpa
 And he's my boss you know
 But Grandpa just think how funny
 It is going to be
 When Daddy can't be boss anymore
 'Cuz the new boss will be me

 Love Joseph xoxoxo
 PS I heard Mama telling Aunt Barbara that you and Daddy are birds of a feather. What does that mean Grandpa ?
