For the first time I attempted to use a flickr photo, so the layout is a little odd as I am still getting used to the process! The second photo is of my grandmother, taken a week or so before she died, a month before her 104th birthday.
go anywhere, do as I choose

Wonderful haiku for both aspects. A nice topic to explore.
Hi. These were beautiful, beautiful thoughts of your grandmother. I really enjoyed reading them, wondering about her, about those 104 years, what she went through, what she'd seen. How lucky you are to have had her love for so long.
