My grandad Pete
Oh how i love my grandad Pete
always likes to dance and sing
always making jokes
always happy to do anything
he might not be the best looking man
with his two yellow teeth
and scruffy beard
but after all its what lies beneath
he also dresses rather funny
with his trousers right up to his neck
and his socks pulled right up
i would always laugh and say' what a right wreck!'
my nan always complains
she always says a tramp would be better looking
even though hes good at gardening
i think my nan should always do the cooking
even though hes 71
he feels so alive
he feels so young
but my nan says he acts just like a child of five!
but after all hes my mentor and my friend
hes told me stories funny and sad
he always calls me 'paulina poppet'
i love him so much cause hes my grandad!
but dont ever call him a grey old fart
because he always says:' it's not grey, it's silver!'
