Learn as if you were going to live forever. Live as if you were going to die tomorrow.Mahatma Gandhi
My Grandpa
By Nick Lowman
My Grandpa wasn't the man who suffered from horrible disease.
He was the strongest man that fought for so long
He was always laughing in front of his Grandkids
Even though he was in so much pain.
Despite the fact he hurt so much,
He was a big loving, caring, funny, enthusiastic person.
And he did it all for us.
We will cherish those memories forever.
This is what Grandpa is to me:
My Grandpa is the sun that shines everyday
Reminding us how lucky we are.
He is the birds that sing
In my Grandma's nice backyard.
He's the feeling I get
When someone cares to help me out.
My grandpa is the country music
That plays in Grandmas house.
My Grandpa is the Avalanche Fans
When they win the Stanley Cup
He's the devoted people
That never give up.
My grandpa is the stars
That gleam and shine at night.
He's the brightness each kid has
In their little night light.
My grandpa is a puppy's joy
When it's first brought home.
He's the excitement of kids outside
When school is postponed.
My Grandpa is the courage
Of a rescue worker in the act.
He is the warm and soft first cookie
Of a homemade batch.
My Grandpa is my conscience
That states what's right from wrong.
He is the perfect rhythm
Of everyone's favorite song.
My Grandpa has a life now
That can't compare to ours.
But if you ever want to see him
Just look into the stars.
