GRANDPA

Grandpa 

Although you left me 6 years ago, 
I still remember the day you were no more,
When I got the ring and rush to be by your side,
Just to see you were no more.

Not a day goes by,
When I do not think of you,
Sometimes when  I am in a fix,
I put myself in your shoes and think,
"What would my grandpa do to overcome this problem?"

Your knowledge of human being and how to handle them,
Has slightly rub on me,
Cause i think hear you and remember all those lessons you taught me!
Which I will take to my grave!

Grandpa oh grandpa
You left your home at the age of 17
So young that at the age  and
did not know what to do,
Yet you were determined to make a future for your next generation.

Indeed you paved the way for your children to follow,
Education you did emphasis,
None of your children have been left behind
For today they are someone because of your efforts.

I still remember sitting on your knee and listening to your stories,
I still remember sitting next to you while you drove your Peugeot,
I still remember when you did my JAWI homework for me :)
I still remember when you would advice me when I was down,
I still remember all those times when you cared for me.
I could go on and on and never end ..
I still remember all those times  because I know you were there for me,

Even now when your are not here with me ,
I still feel your presence at times and know that you would be
very proud of your children and grandchildren.
You were such a visionary and intelligent but from a very humble beginning.
Kishan pura kalan, punjab is where you came from,
I manage to go back to find my roots,
Just to learn that you were very fond of there. 

I miss you grandpa,

I am glad to have been your grandson.. thank you for all the love that you showered on me.. thank you for all guidance and all the things you have instilled in me.
