Grandfather loved his
Family but it was hard
To tell, he was always
Serious and his aged
Face frowned constantly.
But sometimes when
My mother laughed at
My sister’s joke or when
He spoke to grandmother,
He would smile.
His smile was one of pure
Love and adoration towards
Those he cherished and it filled
Them with warmth and comfort.
It’s a shame he never smiled at me.
