Poppy, you left us a lonely, tear-stained
dozen years ago,
Our grandfather's beautiful smile and
cobalt blue eyes,
Penetrated and pierced our hearts,
so sweetly, so wise,
Poppy, you continue to be our
inspiration, whom we idolize
You'll forever be remembered when
we feel a summer breeze, hear a
robin's springtime chirp, catch an
autumn leaf, or romp in winter snow.
