Always ask the question why,
my grandfather said to me.
He gave me a diary and a pen,
the words inscribed to see.
He was a man of intellect,
he was a man of vision.
Reading at his writing desk,
not watching television.
We used to sit and talk for hours,
exploring many things.
Why the world was round,
what literature meant to him.
He taught me to philosophise,
to think a little more.
He instilled the trait in me,
keep asking until I’m sure.
It will take so many lifetimes,
there’s multitudes to learn.
Not leaving doubts unanswered,
a candle I have to burn.
Every puzzle has a final piece,
just to slot in place to see.
Always ask the question why,
my grandfather said to me.

Well he did say that, I did get the diary and pen and he was very clever, unfortunately he liked a few drinks too so some of the memories are made up 😉
