Grandpa

You were always the one
To make me giggle and smile
You lived so far away from us
These trips were so worth while

Then the day came and I wasn't there
I couldn't even say goodbye
You came to me in a dream
You said "I love you" and "don't cry"

Years later, the pain is still fresh
I've married and had my little boy
We named him Ryan, after you!
To honor you, give you pride and joy

I know you watch over him
Through trouble, night and day
I see you in my little Ryan
And that helps take the pain away

I love you Grandpa, we miss you
