The
Man.
I
remember the man that played guitar
The
man I would sing with
the
man I would spend holidays with
the
man I would watch football games with
the
man who always told me I was beautiful
the
man I would draw pictures with
…the
man who I miss more than anything.
My
grandfather.
Now,
he is the man I play guitar for
the
man I sing for
the
man I associate with good times
the
man who made me enjoy football
the
man I want to thank
the
man I wish to draw one more picture for
…the
man who I miss more than anything.
My
grandfather.
