The hands that have done great with

keeping time with the beat

Through pain and joy
Through smiles and tears

The beat gets stronger and crescendos 
As the story goes on with

the thump of the base and
the chirp of the chimes

That intertwine to make something
Strong and groovy with

The shuck of the snare and
The crash of a cymbal

Create a steady beat that comes to life
Like a roaring engine

And if that is put all together it creates something
great like my grandpa.
