Grandpa

“What?!”
“No!”
“How?!”
“When!?”
Those were my words
When my grandpa had a
Heart attack
On his way down to
South Carolina
His back hurt,
His chest hurt,
His neck hurt,
He stayed at the
Hospital for 3 days
And for 3 nights
Then he came home
And he needed to rest
He did
His back rested
His chest rested
His neck rested
Then he felt
All better
