Notes About The Poem

image from poetess's personal scrapbook

remembering summer mornings picking peaches with Granny 

HANDS THAT HOLD

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Morning light spills gold~ grandmother's crooked fingers peel sun-warmed peaches. We catch the juice in our palms, laughing, sticky, unbroken.

Bonds Sara sweet and steadfast are the stuff that sustains humans..I saw The other homes on the border of the photo..No doubt your Gran was a stalwart of that place.'
