Happy Birthday to you, Granddaddy

Granddaddy Miles would make me smile
As I sat upon his knee,
He would wiggle his ears for me.
I didn't get to see him very much
And when I did, treasured his touch.
He was a grand man in every way
And when Grandmother died
He didn't wish to stay.
Eleven months later, we lost him too
He went to be with his love so true .
He was one of the best that God ever let live on this old earth...
His name was Howard Pearson Miles
And this was the day of his birth.
Miss you, love you, and someday will see you again...
Until then, Happy birthday, Granddaddy.
