Overview Bestemordikt

Grandma Poems is for grandparents of all kinds, and for everyone who remembers, knows about, misses a grandmother or grandfather, and everyone who longs for grandchildren, to cradle in their arms, mash bananas, feed with a spoon, stroll through the forest. These poems are meant to be shared and cherished.

There are those who believe in old desert gods
I myself believe in grandmothers.
That they truly exist.
That they are out there.
That they stand there with their hands ready.
