I enjoyed your poem very much because of the young Speaker who describes the Grandmother she misses. We can easily SEE that the young child and the aging grandmother had a wonderful--if brief--relationship. Rod

Hello Jenintorre, a wonderful Wednesday to you. I enjoyed your poem, the words were reminiscent and heartfelt, as well as having great rhymes. I'm sure your grandma would love them. Great job an good luck with the contest, it should be a strong entry.

A lovely offering of tribute for your grandmother, Jen -- you've managed to convey both emotion and physical attributes for your reader to 'know' her. ;) Thanx for sharing this piece of your heart with us! ;) Yvette
P.S. Because the contest could be either prose or poem, the formatting for the contest is set-up for prose.... you could just PM Tom and ask him to switch this to a poetry offering for you... ;) :)

Is that necessary? I quite like the way it reads but is that not correct? I wouldn't know. Jen. X

Nah, you could leave it just like it is... the change would simply allow you to center it below the pic. But if you're happy as is, it doesn't change the wording at all!! ;) :) Still lovely! :) Yvette

Really sweet way to honor her memory. The rhymes seemed completely natural and unrehearsed. Great example of how a picture can be worth a thousand words too!
