A Poem For You

They say there is a reason

They say time will heal

Neither time or reason

Will change the way I feel

Gone are the days

We used to share

But in my heart

You will always be there

The gates of memories

Will never close

I miss you more than anybody knows

Love and miss you everyday till we meet again. Always & Forever

We love you Grandpa Lee
