Never knew my grandpa's, they were too old. I cannot now sing true grampus songs. I get all teary-eyed about those two dead and gonners. I dream of going fishing with them, listening to their tall tales, and, well you know, just getting along fine with the old guys. Hey Grandaddies, what's up? Do you look up or down on me - your once whippersnapper blood-kin? I'm a grandpappy myself...

"He made a difference." Gramps, my mother's father, Dave Luke -- my grandfather, a tall unlettered white (decidedly white) Louisiana man -- was born August 1888. He lived 87 years. He grew under the stern paternal gaze of his father, Duncan (Grandpa Dunc.) Early in life he had to get used to the hard...

He could not have been more thrilled if he had thought of it himself. His copper cane with the fancy parrot was a “hit”...

HANGING OUT WITH GRAMPA, I LEARNED A THING OR TWO. GRANNY KNEW AND UNDERSTOOD PASSED ALONG THE CLUES CONFORMITY IS AN ISSUE. AN ILLNESS OF THE MIND. MANIPULATION OF THE WEAK PUTTING SOCIETY IN A BIND. THROUGH MEDIA DISTRIBUTION, SCIENCE CONDUCTED TEST. PROVING MOST WILL GO ALONG THE REMAINDER CONSIDERED PEST. TO THINK OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE, THEY'RE LIVING OUTSIDE THE BOX. BIG TECH CONSIDERS THIS A CRIME. ENCOURAGING THEY BE...

My gramps was a long-staunch Baptist of the sort S.B.C., Until his local congregation got beholden to the R.N.C. Gramps was a hoot – on a Friday he joined the K.K.K., Saturday, he quit because it wasn’t a branch of the Y.M.C.A. Afterwards, he feared a knock on his door from the C.I.A. Would negate...

GRAMPS Gramps is really very old, At least that’s what he said. There’s hair all on his cheeks and chin, But not much on his head. “But thing’s aren’t what they used to be” My Grandpa said. He has always time to talk to me, He answers every question. But he won’t eat fries when he takes me out Because they give him indigestion. “But thing’s...

Their day at the beach was much hotter than usual. Soon Gramps would totter right down to the ocean. We warned him his notion was bad. We’d seen sharks in the water. Alone, he was happily splashing, but soon, barely clothed, he was dashing to shore. He was screaming, though no blood was streaming. Just shorts, the big creature was gnashing. 7, red (garnet, birth...

When you get older and put out to graze, When kids grow and move to a new phase. When they need help with kids of their own, When they realize what they chose for you, When the light dawns, it will be them soon too. So remember your folks as you age yourself. Never ever leave them sat on the shelf. For...
