Granny's TreasuresTossing and turning after a heavy economic loss
The shock shattered my peace of nights
Hugging my pillow tight with unshed tears
The sorrowful thoughts trudged haltingly
To my grandma's antique sewing machine
Lying impassively in the cluttered store
Guilt shook...

The TaskThe old screen door still welcomes me, a familiar song I've heard before..
But oddly now, it's out of tune, a strange new wail of some despair

Selvedge EdgesBlue-checkered curtains are faded, and drawn,..
after years since she made them, from gunny-sack cloth

I began to unravel it
to see where it led

The Fabric of Two LivesSewing machine, long idle, gathered dust
Its turn-of-the-century frame clad in rust
Sitting in the old attic’s dim lighting
It revived memories uninviting
Her dauntless spirit still seemed to be there
