Best Of Times Poem by Verilyn Titus

I was working with my Grandpa during summer break...
I remember him singing 'Cool Clear Water' as the tobacco we did take...
Then came lunchtime and Grandma would send for us...
There was always a good meal at this time we could trust...
Yes, we didn't know it then but this memory would be our last...
Five minutes on the couch with Grandpa talking about the past...
He patted my knee and said, ' One day you'll be grown and your life will show what your heart can't hide, you see..
What he meant by that I will never know...
Because a short while after that summer the Lord called him to 'Go'....
So, enjoy every moment as they come with friends and family...
And these moments will remain in tact same as it did for me...
