Poem

More a work in progress or thought depository item, but I like it enough to post

There's something very interesting
About the overlapping of lives
The impressions left
Leaving your mark
But not your name in lights 
Or in any books
Like flashes of memories
I came home from school to my Nanna's
As it was nearer school
And my Nanna had built a den for me
Out of my Auntie's maiden and a sheet
As I came round the side of the house
It came into view
And I'd never seen anything so magnificent!
It was furnished too
A bin had been turned upside down 
For a table
And there was a cushion for a seat
I try to recreate things like that sometimes
For my girls
I've battled with bamboo canes
And sparkly material and pegs
The special blanket Samson used to love
And some giant old cushions
I hope it's better than the fancy ones
Today
I've bought oil paints, scrapers and card
With the idea we'll be abstract artists
Like a YouTuber tried on her Friday special
And I won't go down in history
As the best ever
But one of these memories
Will imprint to be something more
And it'll pass forward
