"Grandpa"
Grandpa Harry is the best
He's better than all the rest.
He never shouts, complains, or fights
He's always brave, and does whats right.
Grandpa is really smart
And I know
he has a caring heart.
Grandpa is cool
and this is why
He really is
an awesome guy.
He went on the congo
without a doubt
Of course it was
really hot out.
Grandpa thought
it was really fun
No this poem isn't done.
He goes fishing with me
when I wanna go
And sometimes
we like to play Skip-po.
Grandpa sometimes
takes the blame for me
When he says,
"I did it", sarcastically.
I wouldn't give him up
for the world.
He's one of a kind
his hair is not curled
Cause Grandpa's
the best than all the rest.
