Dad's Name

Dad, can you see your grandson?
Are you pleased he carries your name?
He even has your same blue eyes.
That is known for our family’s fame.

I hope that he grows up like you,
So courageous, so kind and strong.
We can’t wait to tell him all about you,
And the history of the family he belongs.

His birth has made it easier to live
with the pain that your passing brought.
Knowing he carries part of your DNA,
Fills me with hopeful, happy thoughts.

If you're now an angel up in Heaven,
Can you watch over him and protect?
Will you help guide him to make sure
the path he takes is straight and correct?
