A Grandsons Salute
A Grandsons Salute
What defines a man?
Is it the clothes he wears?
Could it be the people he knows?
Would it be the things he says?
Many things can define him.
Here lays a hero.
Here sleeps a father.
Here rest our grandfather.
When uncle Sam called.
He answered with a patriotic yes.
When time came to come home.
He came home as a veteran.
A Simple man.
A loving father.
An active part of his city.
An legend to his peers.
From Christmas eve .
to new years day .
he smiled for the crowed.
led his brothers with a strut.
calm and series .
Honest and Loyal.
brave and bold .
A man that can never back down.
What is it that defines a man.
Could it be the wars he fight .
No battle too hard.
No conflict too difficult.
Here lays a hero .
Here lays a father.
Here lays our grandfather.
Gone but never forgotten.
"Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the memories and the dreams of Time." |
