Grandfather...
Will you play with me today...
Will you take me fishing...
Will you show me your way...

Will you tell me the difference
Between a crane and a loon...
Where’s your best fishing spot
At the Audubon Park lagoon...

Will you show me how
To catch that perfect fish...
Let’s bring it home to Grandma
So she can make your favorite dish...

Will you tell me a story
About when you were just a boy...
Tell me all your best stories
So I can share in your joy...

I love you, Grandfather...
And all that you do for me...
We’re so blessed to have each other...
Just as blessed as we could be!
