Analysis of A Letter to My Grandfather in Heaven.
Dear Grandpa,
Heaven must have been a good place like they are told in stories right. I know you are happy out there.
Father misses you alot. He have become very childish these days because of his illness.
Grandpa! Did you meet uncle there?
You might have not recognised him right.
Dad lost you and his brother years ago,
And he have no one to talk to.
Dad is getting old too and he have diabetes which is making him look too weak
Grandpa! Dad told me that he have never seen your face, since you died when he was just an infant. Grandmother never even mention anything about you. She doesn't even know when Or which year Dad was born. I don't like Grandma. I know I mustn't hate her but she only cares about Aunts and not about Dad.
Grandpa! I saw your picture and you were very handsome. Everyone in Heaven must've been in love with you right now :))
Umm... Grandpa! You know what, Dad told me about his childhood of how he never really got to wear any new clothes since you weren't there and he would often cry silently without letting aunt know.
Please don't take Dad too soon. I'm really afraid that one day I'll wake up and Dad will be gone forever. I know you misses him too and wants to meet him but please don't take Dad away from us. Let him see his children getting married. Let him see his grandchildren too.
I love you so much Grandpa and I am sending millions of warm kisses and hugs to you and to uncle. Continue to shower your blessings upon us. Until we meet again!
Yours granddaughter ,
Aki
