Visiting Granny Bruce (Poem)

13 Apr

Waitrose, gift buying in Cirencester,

It’s 16:00, still light enough to see without the car park lights on.

In steps Luce who’s got the gifts for Granny..!

–

We’ve given the chocolate truffles and bulb set over.

Conversations about: Grandpa’s siblings- six of them, work, elephants and our Aunty who’s birthday it is!

I’m next to the gas fire in the living room.

–

It’s almost dinner: we’ve had our crisps and Strictly Come Dancing is up next.

Me, watching this show, I breathe in acceptance and get into it..

–

It’s been a good day, thank you Lord, it’s been a good day.

Remember, I say to myself, I’ve still got to drive home, reserve energy for the drive..

Jacket potato for dinner with lovely roast veg,

We love you Granny!
