My Aunties Giraffe Vase

I always wanted my auntie’s giraffe vase that held flowers.
It was given to me on a day where the sky filled with showers.
I brought him home and filled him up with posies fine.
Thrilled in every direction that he was finally and truly mine!

So cool that you got it, Caren. I always wanted my aunt's fruit bowl on her dining room table. Artificial fruit from long, long ago and carnival glass. After she died it went to my sister, who gave it to me. I believe my baby teeth marks are on some of the fruit.
