Grandad Poems

Grandad poems are special because grandads are special and poetry reflects the special relationship they have with those they love.

We have gathered all the poems about grandads together in a single section as we recognise the unique place that poems for a grandad have. Such poetry reflects their non-judgemental love, the fact that they have the wisdom of experience, and the fact that grandads have the time to impart the benefit of that experience to us. In their heart of hearts most father's know that they aught to have more time for their children, but they are too busy earning a living and trying to keep a roof over their heads. By the time they are financially secure enough to spend quality time with their children it's too late. They've already left home! Grandads are different, they have the time and the wisdom, and it's that which makes our relationship with them unique and it is that relationship that is usually reflected so well in grandad poems.
