Shimmering in the winter sun
Silver haired
Wise and frail
Able to move fingers still
Sewing precious treasures
Cross stitch, running stitch
Sweet embroidered beauties
Ready to mark the pages
Of books still yet to read
Faces familiar
Friendly family
The joyful life
Know soon
The end is near
A memory
Left for all
Enchanted
Endearing

A wonderful poem Michelle, Thank you
Michelle,
You've painted a beautiful portrait for us of this wise woman. I visit elderly people weekly through my church and am sometimes saddened that more people don't realize what a treasure older people really are. Thanks for sharing!
That's perfect. x
Oh - it's beautiful. Truly.
I'm so glad I've 'found' you.
