This touched me deeply Bill. She sounds so much like my grandmother. She worked in her flowers until the day she died at 83. The flowers are constant reminders of the beauty of our grandmother's life and love. Wonderful poem.
Bill, what a beautiful poem, it brings a tribute to your grandmother that only you could bring from memories of the past. Great images, voice of sincerity and a great flow. Loved it!
A very touching write my friend, you've reminded me of my own grandmother, how she loved the hydrangeas and the rocking chair on the front porch. Such wisdom she blessed us with, only I didn't really come to appreciate that until later in life...I cherish the moments that I shared with her as I grew older, a wonderful write...thank you for a beautiful trip down memory lane and back in time....you've penned it from the heart, could feel it within every word. Enjoyed this my friend!
Blessings,
Joyce B.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
My book of poetry is being redone by me, I have a beautiful cover designed and the book will have a few more than 200 poems in it. I am going to have it printed on demand here in Canada. When it is done I will let you know when it is done and if anyo
