My Special Day

It's my special day
And I miss you so dear granddad
But I know your in heaven
And smiling down on me

When you where here
You helped me so much
Dear granddad
To become the woman
That one day you knew
I would be

So on my special day
Dear granddad
I'll be thinking of you
Most of all

As I know in my heart
You'll be thinking of me
Saying boy, how did she
Grow so tall

This poem was written for my 3rd Cousin - my Mother's Sister's Daughter's Daughter Emma - who at this special time in her life misses her dear Granddad.
