A Man I know
I said goodbye to my Pop,
and I knew it would be the last time,
now all I have are memories to grasp on to,
and a picture in a frame.
Who are all these people?
Who comfort me with kind words,
and share a story with misty eyes,
most are funny but some are sad.
They tell me about a man I knew,
but was it my Pop?
My Pop who lived through decades,
survived the Great War,
someone I laughed with,
someone I cried with.
I cannot say I will not miss him,
but will these people miss the same man I knew?
