winter falls over the house and an old grandma sits near the kitchen stove with a child telling stories, stories not from a book but from memories ... the child shivers and whispers- the house is cold __________________________ January 14, 2022 Poetry/Free Verse/winter falls Copyright Protected, ID 01-1421-547-14 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Bite Size Poems #32 sponsor, Line Gauthier, Judged 01/20/2022 Submitted to the Standard contest, A Brian Strand Verse Freed sponsor, Brian Strand, 03/02/2022 First Place

This brought back memories of my grandma's house in the dead of winter and how we used to vie for spots in front of the single fireplace that heated a large sitting room...first the front side, then the backside...and then give up our place to another person there.
