Grandmother

I dreamed I was picking flowers for you again, like I did the summer before you died. Sometimes I dream about flowers, and as I wake the colors fade into the tears I cry.
I dreamed you died. Sometimes I cry.
I learned from "Amaze: The Cinquain Journal" (now defunct) that in finely written modern Cinquain the first and last lines in each Cinquain should make a "mini poem."

Hi. It's Ms. My grandmother passed away a long time ago. During the last couple of years of her life I helped care for her. At one time she had three green houses and grew beautiful flowers time sell. I miss her dearly. I will be sure to check out your poetry.
