Wandering Cairns
 
Cobalt-black, grey-granite
Cairn: waymarking erratic in a
Norfolk market town.
 
With coal-scuttling-snouted 
Visage, rump soot-sullied - a
Dogged, itinerant Diogenes: 

Mendicant wanderer whose
Waystation is a police cell.
Bored, grinning constable
Ferries him home in a squad car
To my grandparents.

My grandmother fears him.
He snarls at her doggy-choc,
Bone-meal, salmon-pâté, 
Titbit-miscellany ministrations –  
With good reason.

Her other charges barely make it
Beyond whelphood:
Adipose early departures.

Dougal - 
Cantankerous Cairn - 
Much like my grandfather:
Compact, doughty,
Formidable, flinty.


Moulded by Midlands mining-village
Methodism, my grandfather
Rarely attends church, takes 
Umbrage at candles, incense - 
Papist frippery – when he does.

In town, 
Wandering Cairn on his
Daily procession up to the
Bexwell Road presbytery:
Black-cassocked with 
Granite-grizzled pate. 

Northumbrian saint-king 
Eschewing modernity –  as
Sedevacantist, he celebrates 
Tridentine Latin Mass in 
Bloody-minded defiance of 
Bishop and Pope, whom he
Gleefully condemns as Heretics.

This stance earns him: 
Devoted followers among 
Parishioners, global
Notoriety, and my
Grandfather’s
Unstinting, but
Grudging admiration.

I still go to visit grandma and grandpa and I’m their main caretaker, but they’re so old and frail now. And I know time is slipping away…so fast. It’s not the same and it never will be again, and it breaks my heart. 😢 #grandparents

Canadian here. More than 10 years ago, I watched a young #Ringette mom breastfeed her twins between games at the #CanadianRingetteChampionship. For decades, #Husbands #Partners and #Grandparents have taken care of babies while their daughters & granddaughters played, reffed or coached games.

You know: technically #Grandparents’ #Age…

#Millennials are the demographic group born between 1981 & 1996

Roughly 30 to 45 years old

Do the math…

🧮 a 45 year old can easily be a #grandparent

A few months after heart surgery, Rodney Curtis climbs the tallest slide on a brand-new playground while his grandgirlies shriek with delight. Then come the hugs. A sweet two-minute read.

Our little book is all about the big things that happen when #grandparents and #grandchildren connect, share stories, ask questions, and grow together. It is about how to support our grandchildren in a world that is very different from the one we grew up in or raised our own children in.

It is our hope that grandparents, grandchildren and families will find something meaningful in its pages. We’ve heard from early readers and an editor, who evaluated the writing and content, that this is the case.

For some, today brings time together. For others, it brings memories of someone deeply missed. Wherever this day finds you, we hope those connections bring a little warmth and comfort. 🧡
