Grandpa
Every grandchild needs a Grandpa, Whether biological or not,
Grandchildren deserve
Grandparents in their lives.
They need all that I have mentioned in my poem to my grandsons.
Grandpa
My grandsons,
Lee, Eoin, Christopher, Rowick.
A boy needs a Grandpa,
For man-to-man talks.
To go hand in hand,
On companionable walks.
To fix up his toys,
When they no longer go.
To tell him the things,
Little boys want to know.
A boy needs a Grandpa,
To show him the way
Little boys want to know.
A boy needs a Grandpa,
To show him the way
To handle a puppy
To teach him fair play.
To impart bits of wisdom,
He's learned through the years
To teach him fair play.
To impart bits of wisdom,
He's learned through the years
That it's no disgrace
For a man to shed tears.
A boy needs a Grandpa,
To sit on his lap
For a man to shed tears.
A boy needs a Grandpa,
To sit on his lap
And, if no one is looking
They take a wee nap.
Each wrapped in an aura,
Of love and esteem
They take a wee nap.
Each wrapped in an aura,
Of love and esteem
Grandpa Swagger
