I miss,
My grandpa.

I miss,
the way your beard would tickle.

I miss,
The long walks we'd take.

I miss,
The funny things you'd say.

I miss,
The games of UNO that you'd never let me win.

I miss,
Baking cookies in the kitchen.

I miss,
making more memories with you.

I miss,
everything about you.

I miss,
you, more than anything.

The author's comments:
My grandpa was my bestfriend. He was the person I could talk to about anything, I didn't tell my mother half of the things I told him. I wish I would have had more time to spend with him. I want him to be so proud of me, and I think he would be.
