Muuji qoraalka
The speaker of the poem is reminiscing about a childhood memory of climbing their grandfather’s body.
The speaker initially feels safe and secure when reminiscing about his grandfather.
The climb, and act of remembering, becomes increasingly difficult, risky and even dangerous.
The grandfather is presented as an ambiguous figure, both comforting yet also mysterious.
Waterhouse often wrote about the natural world and family relationships.
