A Grandmother Remembering



Where have all the moments gone, 
As fresh as a summer breeze!
That kissed newborn, fresh, emerald 
leavees on Chicago’s trees.

Whatever became of my expansive,
Blond desk, that smelled of fresh wood?
Or, my white and black saddle shoes?   
I’d wear them, ah, if only I could!

What about all my fun and convivial high
School fun, and class of friends?
I imagine them all, now grandmas on
Family-blessed, weekends!

What great satisfaction, to know that this,
My beautiful, bright, and so blessed progeny,
Will carry me with then in spirit and 
Humble works, rest with them, so poetically!

Sara Etgen-Baker Date: 4/26/2024 4:32:00 PM I enjoyed the nostalgic and reminiscent quality of your poem. I also admire the fluidity of your lines and your rhyme scheme. (You helped me remember my black & white saddle oxford shoes). I felt the joy you have with your family...a delightful read. Have a great evening, hugs, Sara

I love the striking, delicate picture too that you have chosen. The last stanza is heartfelt and profound. You will always be carried on the wings of all those that love you dear Pangie. Your beautiful soul will fly forever. I loved this. Such a joy to read. Luv and blessings to you for a happy weekend xx

Regina Elliott Date: 4/26/2024 2:12:00 PM Oh how sweetly beautiful and nostalgic, dear Pangie. The years have a way of rushing by. Surrounded by high school friends, then graduation comes and we must part ways. Your loving poem speaks eloquently of this and of the joy of family. A FAV. I'm misty eyed, good friend. God's bountiful blessings. xoxx
