Watching Grandma Paint
A wild tempestuous ocean
Or soft meadow lined with trees
She painted nature's beauty
And now like nature, she is free
Ask her any question she'd find the reason why
The wisdom of her years was infinite
As stars in the night sky
A goddess among women
I cherished every stay
Spending childhood Summers

This is so tender and encaptured from a youthful perspective. The elders in our lives have so much to teach us in both action and words - all we need do is watch and listen.
Lovely, Lily. Thank you for sharing.
