1. Title: “Dear Grandpa”

Through each season, your love is near,
Yet, moments arise when you’re not here.
To see our deeds, hear what we say,
In games we play, you’re not far away.

This picture book, a heartfelt gift,
Pages turning, memories adrift.
Changes recorded, as time may sway,
A visual journey, year by year.

But a book falls short, in truth, we find,
Expressing love of the deepest kind.
Believe us, sincere in what we say,
Love blossoms more with each passing day.

So when you flip through this cherished tome,
Let the pages speak, let memories roam.
In every scene, our love holds sway,
Growing stronger with each passing day.

2. Title: “Memories Last a Lifetime”

I wish you were here, but now you’re gone,
In tough times, it’s hard to carry on.
Your jokes, laughs, and infectious smiles,
Memories of riding for miles.

When I was six, you’d drive me to school,
With Papaw, I thought, “Isn’t this cool?”
We’d stop at the store, I’d always implore,
To drive a bit more, oh, how I adore.

Now, four children fill my days,
I wish you could have seen their playful ways.
You lit up my world, love in my heart,
Though we’re apart, not far, not apart.

You’re the angel watching over me,
No one else in the world I’d rather it be.
I miss you still, wish you were here,
Thinking of you brings a heartfelt tear.

3. Title: “Granddad”

Your smile, a cherished memory we hold,
In our hearts, a story of love unfolds.
Life or death can’t keep us apart,
You’re the advice we seek, the beat of our heart.

In moments of upset or slight distress,
You knew what to do, what to express.
You remain our go-to, guiding our way,
Even though you’re not with us today.

Thank you for being the best you could be,
Our confidant, friend, head of the family.
Now, it’s time for you to just be,
Relax, have fun, from worry be free.

Though physically apart, in spirit you abide,
A lifetime of happiness in every stride.
We believe in a reunion, not goodbye,
Your love echoes on, reaching the sky.

4. Title: “My Granddaddy, My Best Friend”

The one who’s my confidant,
The one who’s my guide.
How much I cherish and deeply care,
Words can’t capture, they fail to declare.

You’ve always stood as my hero,
A source of pride, my steadfast zero.
Endless love you have bestowed,
Revealing depths that forever flowed.

Within my heart, love overflows,
A soul dancing in joy that only grows.
You sang me to sleep, whispered sweet night,
Guardian of dreams, in your comforting light.

Every day, gratitude I send to God above,
Thankful for sending you, my greatest love.
You crafted a song, a melody so true,
Turning dreams into realities, all because of you

5. Title: “If I Could Choose”

If I could sift through grandpas worldwide,
Among the choices, you’d be my pride.
Your eyes, a gleam with mischief’s delight,
A laugh that echoes, warming the night.

Your hands, always ready to reach my way,
A heart expansive, welcoming each day.
The time we spend, a treasure so rare,
Your stories, my guide, beyond compare.

In the vast grandpa pool, diverse and wide,
You stand out, my chosen guide.
With eyes that gleam, a laughter’s grace,
A presence that time cannot erase.

In this grandpa’s world, diverse and true,
I would still choose you.
For your unique blend of love and art,
You’re the grandpa who holds my heart.

6. Title: “My Grandpa, My Hero”

What crafts a hero, one might pose?
Not just strength or daunting throes.
A hero’s heart, a guiding hand,
With love that guides and understands.

In moments of need, they dry your tears,
Through smiles and frowns, allaying fears.
Wisdom shared, no judgment in view,
Dear Grandpa, our hero, forever true.

Through life’s journey, you’ve paved the way,
A beacon of love, brightening each day.
Your strength, a fortress, unwavering, bold,
In your embrace, we find warmth to hold.

So here’s to you, our hero dear,
Whose love and wisdom we revere.
In your footsteps, we find our cue,
Grandpa, our hero, we honor you.

Since my childhood days so wild,
In every twist and turn compiled;
You’ve stood as my unwavering hero,
None stood taller, that much is clear.

Time you dedicated, lessons refined,
Teaching what I needed, heart aligned.
Life’s wisdom shared with love untold,
Each word a gem, each lesson bold.

As a child, I loved you near,
Now grown, those lessons reappear.

Your memories linger, never to part,
Carried with me, a treasure in my heart.

You are the anchor in life’s changing art,
No distance can tear us, never to depart.
You are, and forever will be,
A source of love and strength for me.

A beacon of hope, showing how to care.
In every lesson and every embrace,
You leave an imprint, a mark of grace.

In the shade of Colliehare, beneath the tree,
On your knee, we sat, just you and me.
Shelling peas, weaving tales, singing a song,
Moments lasting until shadows grew long.

We’ll cherish the times, sipping your beer,
Playing cards, with a hint of fear.
That dreaded call, from mother so near,
Bedtime beckoning, a familiar frontier.

Delighted Will glimpsed your loving spree,
Fun and generosity, for all to see.
At Christmas, a secret, your mischievous play,
“Hide it from mother, put it away.”

In his hands, a note, crisp and grand,
A treasure held by young, eager hands.
Realization struck, I’d grown up, not small,
Still your girl, but not as I recall.

Eternally imprinted, a legacy rare.
In every way, your virtues discerned,
Grandpa, your excellence is earned.

A perpetual smile, your presence brings,
Expressions of love through life’s strings.
Constant and unwavering, a love so fine,
Grandpa, in my heart, you forever shine.

The best, Grandpa, in love and cheer,
In your embrace, I hold dear.
Stay this way, my eternal endeavor,
For you, Grandpa, I’ll cherish forever.

Grandparents, with wisdom and pride,
Guide us with love, a constant tide.

Equal love that lasts forever.
Listening with care, understanding near,
Respect and support, casting out fear.

Devotion clear in actions they display,
Shining examples lighting our way.
Love’s beacon, bright for all to see,
Grandparents, pillars of our family tree.

In moments of joy and times of woe,
Their love, a steady, comforting flow.
Grandparents teach, with wisdom vast,
Kindness and patience that forever last.

In childhood days, a little one’s delight,
You played with me from morning till night.
Wrestling, reading, coloring with glee,

God’s love, a gift, second to none.
Your godly life, a beacon so bright,
Defining a Grandfather, your guiding light.

A grandfather’s love, forever rare.

In your varied jibes and laughter’s cheer,
I find a reason to strive and persevere.
Your wisdom and love, oh, so sincere,
In your perfection, Grandpa, I hold dear.

With every hug and every smile,
You make my days worthwhile.
A guiding light, steadfast and agile,
In your warmth, I find my style.

I love you, Grandpa, beyond compare,
For everything you do and the love you share.
A heartfelt thank you, beyond mere words,
For being the best, my rock of sturdy chords.
