Handy Technology Poem by Glen Kappy

Handy Technology

Rating: 5.0


With a phone she can hold
in one hand

the grandma records
for future viewing

the child trying shaky steps
then falling as if sitting on the grass

then getting up and toddling
and falling on his bum again

then getting up
and trying once again—

reminding us that failure's
not the inverse of success

but every much and every step
a part of it.

Thge grandmaa talks abut and records sweet memeories. The child tries for shaky steps. Affectionate bondiubng between grandmother and child is well noticed. This poem is very interestingly and brilliantly penned.10
