The Real Inheritan

Some say I have my Granddad's eyes
   and his big ears.
 
But I'd rather think
   I have the sense of honor
      he displayed daily at work.
His calm steel in tough times.
And the love of a family
   put before himself.
 
Heredity is only a canvas
   on which the real inheritance
      is painted.
The likeness of my Granddad's spirit.
