20th anniversary

Silver hair, with a twinkle in his eye,

Our grandpa was a wonderful guy.

His laugh could always fill up a room -

So jovial with a resounding boom.

Our grandpa kept a garden;

A garden of the heart.

He planted all the good things,

That gave our lives their start.

We could always ask grandpa

when we needed advice,

And what he said, he never had to say twice.

He was a man you could always take at his word,

And he never had ro speak loudly to be heard.

Now the room no longer

echoes with his laughter,

Since he's moved on into the mists of ever after.

But to those who know

and love him like we still do,

His memory will warm our hearts

and leave a tear or two.
