I really liked this poem, because I also lost my grandfather and with this poem it helps me to know that there is someone out there that knows what I'm going through!

I can realate to this poem. My Tata shared the same birthday with me. Every time my birthday rolls around I think of him the most. Even though it is hard to celebrate my birthday I do anyway because I know that he would want me to be happy. So I celebrate it for both of us. I miss you Tata Lino.
