A grumpy old man, but with a heart to mend.
He was a co-worker, always by my side,
Together we laughed, together we cried.
Stubborn as hell, he never backed down,
Fought for his country, wore a warrior's crown!
With a twinkle in his eye, and a mischievous grin,
He lived life to the fullest, despite his chagrin.
A Rhyming Couplet, a structure so neat,
To honor this man, so full of wit and heat.
Though he grumbled and groaned, he had a gentle soul,
A kind-hearted man, who made us feel whole.
His stories were legendary, his jokes a delight,
He could turn any frown into laughter so bright.
Through thick and thin, he stood tall and strong,
A loyal companion, all along.
Now he's gone, but his spirit remains,
In memories and stories, where love sustains.
We'll miss his grumpiness, his stubborn ways,
But his legacy of kindness forever stays.
So here's to you, dear husband and friend,
May your soul find peace, as our love won't end.
In our hearts, you'll forever reside,
A grumpy old man, with a smile so wide.
