Grandma's Little Sister
Back in the days when chimes told time
in Grandma's place
my brother an me patiently would wait
for the moment to come by
when we could escape her watchful eye
As we roamed the halls from the closed off wing
ancestors watching from their golden frames
one picture in particular would draw us close
a little girl with a turned up nose
portrayed playing on the beach
just like when we saw her both
that magical day we went swimming in the cove
All afternoon ... entire poem
