Your Poem ......

Grandad and Gran B,
this is your poem...

Tonight, you are with the family
and friends, who have loved with you.
We've seen the good and revelled in it.
We've seen the bad and been there for you.
Just as you have always been there for us
no matter what or who tried to come between
the strong, binding ties we've created.

There are so many times that you've shared
that I will never know about.
What was it like to hold your first child
or your second for that matter?
When you met was it love at first sight ?
On your wedding day, what did you have
that was blue? Did you watch her smile
as she walked down the aisle ?

All that I know is that you are my grandparents,
the ones I run to, have done since I was little.
for a cuddle or to hear my favourite fairy tale.
To listen to you tell me about the past.
You have done so much, I could never
be who I am now without you.

Do you remember helping me make dens?
Can you remember when we went fishing
and grandad kept saying those huge fish
just broke off the line ........ yeah right grandad.
I can, I remember the happiest moments
being simply with you. At your caravan
or walking and bilberry picking at brimham rocks.
The adventures I've been on with you two.

So tonight, we are celebrating your adventure.
I hope you smile, I hope you get all the hugs,
I hope that you enjoy yourselves,
and most of all I hope we can all share in it.
because as a family, we are strong
and you are our strongest link
always have been, always will be.
