spilled suddenly on Sunday -
heart in cellophane

Senryu of Sadness
Grandmother spider’s web of crystal silk;
Décor just for my pear trees;
Shimmering silver lights.
Sloth is the deadliest of sins
or so my Grandma told me
But spying me in a book again,
Helpless! She couldn't scold me!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
velvet cream whispers~
cinnamon laughs in my throat
rum spirits linger
blue jeans grandma with a plaid shirt
three days wearing them, she has dirt
not persnickety in any way
happily grungy every day
As she hummed and sang
pearls of wisdom went~forth
from granny’s lip

My wheat ringlets
join my grandmother's thick dark hair
— incompatible
to those who throw stones
and call me "white Indian"
Caring hands are soft,
Embrace you can not forget
Hairs turning grayish
Wrinkles on the face are out
She loves, unconditional…
Chocolate Cream Pie
Divine decadence lost with Grandma's memory.

For Andrea's Food and Memory Connections contest
she patted her apron
tiny boy crawled inside
she covered him up
hiding him from the cruel world
never letting him go
he was safe
Grandma decided to exercise
I'm too heavy she had to confess
She started walking a mile a day
Where she's at now is anyone's guess
The cat invariably got his tail crushed as Grandma rocked in her old rocking chair.
Entry for Rick Parise's "One, One Liner" Contest
they talk to you
and raise you too
there at your side
when mother tell lies
they or wises
theyer like others
KIDS AND GRANDMOTHER
to the lake to the lake
fish to fry fish to bake
this has been moms cry
birthdays now just rye
if once we'd bring a cake.
euphoric in chlorinated water
a splash
grandma has arrived
small ducks
chatter
and cling
battle for hugs

In this poem-request, I hope I don't sound overly pushy or snotty :-)
But I pray more Depends can be donated so old people can go potty!
when they first spoke it
"grandmother" was a concern
like condemned buildings
badly weathered and painted
graffitied quite obscenely
“We’re all human” my Grandmother
used to say
—some of us are just more human than others

Florence of Lawrence
Mother of sense
her learning curve incense
her colorful fence for defence
Progressing up the pyramid with boldness
My sweet grandmother bakes it
Tangy fruit inside
The crust sprinkled with sugar
Take a great big bite
Sensational taste
Red cherry
Pie
for Grace Haven
1908 - 1998
her passion flower vine
lines the ceiling front to back
grandmother's greenhouse
The old rocking chair is still the same, even after its retirement,only location varies
Dedicated to my grandma.A 84 year old brave lady.
Stay off the roads today
Grandma's managed to find the car keys
~ She snuck out mid nap !
