Grandmother's Porch

Grandmother's Porch Oh, with my love remembered! Huge American flag flying with pride! House a pristine white, with hunter green shutters. Three matching hunter green rocking chairs with chintz cushions. Huge geranium plant in a lovely wood container. Railings to keep us children all safe! My hobby horse, Willy and my dolly, Sally,in a high chair. The most welcoming wood front door with shiny brass handle. Two lanterns beside that door of joy! Oh, Grandmother Helen ! I miss you so! And my days of cinnamon innocence. October 22, 2019
