Poem: They are the greatest!

The computer swallowed grandma.

Yes, honestly it's true!

She pressed 'control and 'enter'
And disappeared from view.

It devoured her completely,
The thought just makes me squirm.
she must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm.

I've searched through the recycle bin
And files of every kind;
I've even used the Internet,
But nothing did I find.

In desperation, I asked Google

My searches to refine.
The reply from there was negative,
Not a thing was found 'online.'

So, if inside your 'In box,'
My Grandma you should see,
Please 'Copy, Scan' and 'Paste'
And send her back to me.

[This is a tribute to all the Grandmas and Grandpas

who have been fearless and learned to use the computer...]

Wat is 'n oupa?

Oupa is mans-oumas.

'n Oupa is iemant nes jyself, net 'n biekie slimmer

want hy kan jou help met goed waarmee jy nie self

kan regkom nie.

Oupas gaan stap met klein sienkies en gesels net oor

visvang en trekkers.

'n Oupa werk nie en daarom het hy tyt vir jou

behalwe wanner hy wil slaap, want oupas slaap graag.

'n Oupa kan ook nie mooi sien nie,

daarom wil hy altyt weet wat jy doen.

Oupas het baaaie geld, want hulle koop elke dag die koerant.

'n Oupa is iemand wat altyd bly is om jou te sien,

want hoekom het hy altyt swiets in sy sak?

Elkeen moet tog probeer om 'n oupa te kry.

Hulle is beter as telewiesie.
