grandpa jake
i make music with words
i heard you played the accordion
traveled the country with a band
had many women,
a few families you abandoned
i wonder if you still write songs in heaven
—or is it really quiet, like in catholic church,
or waiting rooms
maybe i'm too soon in asking
but that much peace could drive me crazy
imagine, if you knew me
like a familiar melody
we could spend our time listening
tapping our feet
to a sweet genetic rhythm,
only you and i could make
grandpa jake, i understand—
the music was the reason
you had to keep moving
—now, how do i find
a soothing
lyric for that

| You wake up everyday and you take a deep breath. I have a poem in my journal called "The music of the world" and I have a poem about my best friend moving away called "Waling in the woods" I know they won't bring your grandpa back. but maybe they will encourage you. |
