Notes About The Poem

Missing my grand-mother

I still see her ghost.
She's at the woodstove cooking and baking.
Perfumes still roam the air.

Sweet poetry, and precious tribute to your grandmother. I miss mine too, I feel her near often these days, as I am a grandmother now too. I love your poem <3
