This writing seems like it should be a story written in prose. What lovely summers you enjoyed with your grandpa. Every kids dream. . .and of course it made you who you are today in appreciation of times like that.
Best of luck to you in the contest. I really like the pic you've chosen too.

Comment from Anne Johnston
I like your poem about your memories as a child with your grandfather. Rhyming is good and it flows smoothly. Life seemed so much simpler back then, and I am glad for the relationship you and your grandfather shared.

Comment from LisaMay
I'm pretty sure I know who wrote this - you have a wonderful way with words to summon up such idyllic scenes and activities of childhood past, with time spent in the company of your beloved Grampa.
I liked the rhythm of the 1st and 4th line rhyming.
The final stanza is poignant with its memories.

This poem, Summer Remembrances, presented with ABCA quatrains, brings the readers all the greatest memories we have from our collective pasts which drip with sentimentality and nostalgia.
