as i pick up this sunflower
i look to the sky
remembering the time i said goodbye
wondering how we would get by
you were our ray of sunshine
an example of what a man should be like
you showed us what love truly looks like
i will always appreciate you
no one could ever fill your shoes
you were a very hard person to lose
and it hurts to be apart
but you will always be my pawpaw at heart
i know you are looking down
cheering for me
seeing me become the person i told you i was going to be
love you always
