My Grandpa! Poem by Manasvini Nagampalli

My Grandpa!

Rating: 4.5


A person sweeter than sugar,
a person angrier than a tiger.
Not too small or not too tall.
Who else could it be my grandpa, who is the best grandpa of all!

But, I do agree he has a lot of temper.
Since, I'm his grandchild I am pampered.
He treats me like a princess or maybe even more.
But when angry he is out of control.

Like a thorny rose with its fragrant breeze.
I love the way my Grandpa is!

A nice piece, well articulated and nice penned to capture the conviction of poet about her grandpa. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.

Hah! Sounds almost exactly like my Grandfather who would be 120 years old this year if he were still alive and growling...Yet deep down inside he had this tiny soft spot in his Heart and it always seemed that I had a knack of bringing that out of him, to the shock of the rest of our family...I was only 10 at the time, but we spent a summer together that I will never forget if I live to 120! Grandpas can be very cool! Very well written poem...Enjoyed it much!
