Recently while going through some of Maymie's old letters and cards, I found a newspaper clipping of a poem I had given to Maymie many years ago. Even though the poem seems somewhat dated and a little old fashioned, the sentiment still holds true today.

I adore poetry, and felt so connected to that poem from the new paper article, reminds me of my own grandmother.
