My Grandfather

My Grandfather
was a very Special Man...
a Great Man..even
..to very many people
He was a Scholar
a Teacher
..a Hero in Wartime
they say

............but to me
he'd read stories
..in pjamas
before tucking me in
to a duvet..
...blown breeze
in the dark room
...with the ticking clock
the faint scent of him
.....lingering
