Walk with grandpa



Walk in the woods with grandpa


the smell of the soil and plants


the sound of the wild animal


to become one with them


see them move and just being


we learned to listen , smell and see it all


time fly by but to us it was not felt or seen


it was just our grandpa and us within the woods


he show us a piece of wood


then say what animal was trapped within it


then he sit on a rock or log


he start carver out the animal within the wood


careful and in slowness you see the animal in the wood too


this is how a master caver does caving


we loved the time with grandpa


due to the lesson learned some without even talking


we see what nature really was to become one with nature


we reamember the long deep talks we had with him


how he told us the woods was his church


the place he connected with God


we loved him dearly due to how hes was 


he believed in us and saw us when others did not


so when he died we was young only 10yr


we felt like we lost only one who saw us for who we be


others only saw us as odd and well some said we was crazy too


but grandpa saw who we truly be


so years later we still hear within what he said to us


so we hope some day we see him again


we glad we had him for as long as we did


he said we was his little wild fire other times his little flower


we miss that very much but we believe he still with us


deep within our heart he still their guiding us from beyond


love and peace can be found within the memories of time with grandpa

This is such a beautiful way to honor a person who clearly meant so much to you. Your admiration and appreciation for him shines through as you remember all the wonderful lessons learned and memories shared. 

As someone who has also coped with the loss of an amazing Grandfather, your writing brought a tear to my eye in the best way. Beautifully written. Thank you for sharing this. 💛
