Grampy's Song

Grampy Max showed me a poem that he wrote the other day.  He has been digging into his geneaology and learning about his family.  Part of this poem/song contains words written by one of his distant relatives.  This song is a perfect glimpse into Grampy.  I love it and thought I would share it with you:

Just Wobblin' Along

Just wobblin' along
whistlin' a song

Age has slowed my pace
And wrinkles line my face yet
Deep inside I know--

*The spirit never ages
The essence of the soul is
Sure and strong forever and
keeps us young and whole

Just wobblin' along
Whistlin' a song

Max, Age 89
January 2010

*Charlotte Pease
