great photo. heck of a nice looking woman.

i was just lying in bed this morning with laura thinking out loud that i wish elizabeth could have known her grandmother. i sure would've liked to see this little kid sitting on the old girl's lap and making her smile.

thanks for remembering.

She was a form of life and light
That seen, became a part of sight,
And rose, where'er I turn'd mine eye,
The morning-star of memory!

Shrimp Scampi

Mary loved rich, creamy, delicious food.
Pot roast with gravy&white bread to soak in it
Potato salad with eggs and mayonaise
Shrimp and garlic and butter and oil.
A lovely appreciation for good eating.
How I wish she could have let herself eat what she damn well pleased,
With no interference from you know who.
Mary have a big piece of your yummy chocolate mayo cake, as big as you want, with ice cream too.
Maybe thats heaven.

I wrote this and many other silly sorts of poems in the Spring after Mom died. Had lots of feelings with no where to put them.
Happy Birthday Mom, miss you.
