SUN BONNET
Each year like a routine
A visit to her Grandmas 'til a teen.
"No coffee for you" Grandma said,
'Twil stunt your growth, tea instead.
She loved her grandma with all
her heart.
Slept with her, n'er apart.
Bedtime prayers were always spoken
Grandma explained God, He
was a Christian,
Visiting with Grandma was perfect,
'cept......
Wearing the sun bonnet
was hard to accept!
Off to the "second-hand" store.
every year she wept!
Embarrassed, humiliated, inept!
Grandma bartered from quarter to dime
She'd wait by her side the whole time.
She loved the bonnet and wore it
all summer long.
'Twas just the bartering that
seems so wrong!

" I know that's why I don't
like garage sales to this day!"
"Full price smiles!"

I actually have my Grandmother 's sunbonnets she would wear outside in the hot summers. She always tried to get me to wear one but I could outrun her. I still hate anything on my head. This a quite a trip down memory lane. Thank you.
Love,
Rita

Unbelieveable! This Bonnet flies away everytime I attempt to comment.
5-times opened, and 5 times rolled back into the Incredibmail.
Had to save the Bonnet into the Favorites to keep it open long enough to put these lines in.
Very cute.
I prefer church bazars to Garage Sales.
But poem is awfully cute.
Warm love
Elizabeth |
