Tender Winter



I sew memories
In that winter sun
Basking in glory
As slowly embers burn

Huddled together
Bundled in awe
In grandma's cuddle
Dreams that I saw

By that wooden log
Orange it glowed
Warm stories flowed
As out snow poured

I sew memories
Sweet and bitter
Of moth smelling sweater
That lovely tender winter

  2. This takes me back to winter afternoons with my grandma, as we watched the fire and she told me magical stories. Sigh. Beautiful!

  4. I've a quilt my mother made from pieces of her mother's dresses. Your beautiful words were reminiscent of that quilt. Thank you.
