A Letter To Heaven

Dear Grandpa,
I am sorry that I never knew you when you were young.
You were a good I heard.
You never let your Polish heritage stop you.
I will admit, you scared me when I was younger.
I never really knew you,
I would visit you, say hello, have an awkward conversation,
Then leave, to go play with chalk.  
I feel selfish about that now.
I'm sorry that you had to be in pain,
At least you were sleeping when the angels came.
You served your country when they needed it,
For that, and many other things
You had a reserved spot in Heaven.
So this is the letter to say Goodbye
Because I can't see you right now.
Or ever.
Goodbye. You lived a full life.
Goodbye. You loved your sons.
Goodbye. You loved us.
Goodbye Grandpa.
With love,
Molly.
