Grandma's Kitchen

in grandma's kitchen the aroma so sweet
with every warm dish a memory to greet

the clatter of dishes and laughter so bright
a sanctuary filled with love and light

her hands work like magic in flour they dance
creating delights that bring smiles in a glance

the kettle is whistling the cookies in rows
her secret ingredients no one truly knows

with stories she shares as the oven's warmth glows
each recipe borrowed from years long ago

her gentle advice like a comforting quilt
in the heart of her kitchen a legacy built

so here's to the moments both big and small
in grandma's kitchen there's love for us all

"Creating delights that bring smiles at a glance...her gentle advice like a comforting quilt." priceless...a time seemingly so long ago, when a People retained their personal points in society. This poem is all too human, all too gone...J.A.B.

Justin, your words touched me deeply. That sense of something “all too human, all too gone” is exactly what I was feeling as I wrote it--a longing for the warmth, wisdom, and rootedness that once felt so steady. Thank you for recognizing that and for always reading with both heart and soul.
