Memories of Grandma

via Daily Prompt: Yarn Whenever I think of yarn, I think of my grandmother.  She was always crocheting something beautiful.  She would sit there on her little love seat, no matter the season, and craft away at a new blanket with her yarn purse at her side.  Her crochet basket was always full of so …

Awoken

I was awoken by a crash of thunder this morning. It feels like I haven't slept at all. I am tired of all the thunder storming. Can someone please put the rain "on call"? It's one of those moments that make my heart race. I placed my hand over my heart in fear. The pillowcase …

The Blanket of Flowers

I sat there staring at the blanket of flowers Laying upon my father's grayish, silver casket Roses, carnation, and tiny baby's breath The greenery accenting their beauty It was closed. I couldn't see him. Are you in there, Dad? All I can see are the flowers. A blanket of them keeping you safe. The preacher's …
