A True Hero
What makes a man a hero?
I've often thought this through.
It's someone who is macho?
It's someone who is true?
One does not have to do anything to become a grandfather. It simply happens when your child has a child. It is up to you to decide how involved you will be in your grandchild's life. There is an inherent biological relationship but the emotional bonding between grandfather and grandchild comes only with effort. It happens when the grandchild sees that you are open to forming a relationship. It happens when you get off your easy chair and make the effort to see what matters to your grandchild.

Every day I wonder why
You were taken high up to the sky,
And I didn't get a chance to say goodbye,
I'm sorry.
Today I miss you a lot, Dadu, and I'm feeling so guilty that I could not see you one last time. You know what Dadu, after the death of Papa I was upset but never feel alone because you were...
My Grandpa and I do a lot of things together,
But fishing with my Grandpa is the best ever.
I love going to the lake when the sky is all blue.
I love riding in my Grandpa's boat, too.
Love your poem about fishing with your Grandpa. There are millions of fish in the oceans and ponds, but being with your Grandpa is a beautiful bond! Enjoy every memory with him; it's priceless!

The one that is my friend,
The one that is my guide.
How much I love and how much I care,
Is too much to describe.
At least you spent 14 years with him. I've never even seen my maternal grandpa, and my paternal grandpa expired when I was 4.
Northern Star, Northern Star,
I gaze up at you from afar.
Shining brightly in the curtain of night,
Northern Star, you are my light.
It's gotten harder and harder
since the day you went away
but still people keep telling me
everything shall be okay...
My grandfather died from a heart attack. He always loved me and was a very good man. I miss you and love you. You're always in our hearts.

The smile on your face is a lasting memory in our hearts,.
Nothing in this world, not even life or death, can keep us apart.
You have always been the one we went to for advice,
Whenever we were just upset, or even just a bit uptight,
This poem is so moving. My grandpa died Thursday. It was hard on all of the family. We always went to him for comfort. This poem is helping me get through my grief.
Great Grandpa is a wise old man who says he's ninety-four.
He tells me that he lost his leg fighting in some war.
When I was just a little tot with eyes and nose still runny,
He swears that he forgot my name, so now he calls me Sonny.
Balter's poem reminds me of my own grandfather whom I lost 49 years ago when he was 94. I remember his two habits very lucidly. He was a frugal eater. He used to weigh his food every time...
It's time
to say goodbye.
I'm so upset,
my mouth has gone dry....
My grandad passed away May 2014. He was my everything. I loved him so much. He was like my best friend. The stories he shared were amazing. He was a lovely father I have ever known. All he...
The definition of a gentleman is clear to detect,
it's one of warmth love and respect.
When you're feeling low they will understand,
