I also am finding the time it takes you to write the poem interesting to think about.<br /><br />I love both Joe and his hat. <br /><br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-45262764929512122552014-04-22T06:58:09.418-04:002014-04-22T06:58:09.418-04:00Amy,

It honors your husband's grandfather, even if the details are fictional. As I read, I recalled stories of my grandfather too. This poem is a winner!Linda A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16517546647672781332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-58971183427752239342014-04-21T23:34:00.958-04:002014-04-21T23:34:00.958-04:00I've missed a few poems lately, Amy, and will ...I've missed a few poems lately, Amy, and will go back to catch up sometime, but am so happy I read this one. It's beautiful, and your back story about your husband's grandfather makes it even more so. I still have an old flannel shirt of my grandfather's. Objects like a special hat bring such good memories. Your images are good, too, like the neighborly chat. I can surely see that man wearing that blue hat!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-34124349832287702532014-04-21T10:26:26.929-04:002014-04-21T10:26:26.929-04:00Your notebooks always make me feel like mine are o...Your notebooks always make me feel like mine are ok. I want them to look like I write perfectly and beautifully, but writing (like life I guess) is messy and unclear in its process.

And yes, rewriting can be infuriating! Getting through that phase is what makes it so rewarding, right?JoAnn Early Mackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17812079420917080829noreply@blogger.com
