PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS 98 - FOR DAYS LONG AGO video and song

PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS 98 - FOR DAYS LONG AGO video and song


Pawpaw will always love his buddy-pals Connor, Bryson and Archer!

I think of you every single day. I often lay in bed at night missing you, your laughter, your smiles, your hugs.

Here's my latest music creation. I re-imagined the 1788 poem / song Auld Lang Syne. It's originally Scottish and uses words that are not understood today so I interpreted the words into ones we normally use in our time. It is a beautiful melody and the lyrics are about old friends remembering the good old days together.




For Days Long Ago We two have run about the hills And picked the daisies fine oh We've wandered many a weary mile Since the days long ago And you'll have your pint tankard dear I'll surely have mine oh We'll drink a cup to kind mem’ries dear For days long ago INSTRUMENTAL BREAK And here's my hand, my trusty friend, And give me your hand oh We will take a good-will drink my friend For the days of long ago Old friends should never be forgotten Should be remembered oh Old friends should never be forgotten For days long ago For days long ago, my dear For days long ago We'll drink a cup to kind mem’ries dear For days long ago Inspired by Auld Lang Syne 1788 Reimagined by Steven Skelley 2025


Pawpaw loves and misses you all. If I am still alive when you are old enough to find these messages, please reach out to me. I will never stop loving you. My heart remains broken that politics and religion drove a wedge between your parents and me and my husband.


These lyrics speak to my heart about the years that I have lost with you my beloved grandsons:

We two have run about the hills And picked the daisies fine oh We've wandered many a weary mile Since the days long ago

Pawpaw
