Alyssa--Extra Submission




Never Forgotten

In my head it was all a thrill
a place where everything seemed real
No worries, no doubt, I took the wheel

A nightmare at first but I changed the route
I know we will meet again no doubt
but I was not ready to let go and pout

His words of wisdom made me much stronger
but sad that I would not hear them much longer
Thinking that this day would come, only made it much harder

But I know we will never part
because grandpa, I will always hold you dear to my heart.

  2. I love your poem. I think you did an awesome job at rhyming as well as making the lines flow. Even though it's sad, I like how you had control of the situation instead of the other way around. You should seriously write more poems :)
