One day I want to be the grandmother that only ever wears socks while fully dressed, at Christmas I’ll put coins in them and dance on the hearth and make the grand children laugh, after I've one too many eggnogs and a belly full of love.

Make sure the kids remember and never forget you don’t really need blinking lights, but if they must, the clear ones are prettiest when you decide you’d like some, or lanterns, lanterns should never go out like fashion does..

 

plain brown paper bag lanterns, so simple, such a warm glow, and bare feet well, everyone has their own take on bare feet, I think of sprites and shabby frocks, tangled hair' greying locks.

This gave me the *warm and fuzzies*. My Meme played the piano and sang after
"one too many eggnogs and a belly full of love".

Nice job!

reaally great imagery hear, its like you looked into the future through an optimist's lens, and I can't say I think badly of what you said. I love the line about clear lights, thats just brilliant to me. Three's such a beauty in the things we address casually, and I think that line embodied that sentiment perfectly.

ooh, I like this piece, mostly because of the easy, simple feeling it gave me while I was reading it. It was kind of heartwarming, even made me want to grow old for a second there. And I like the way you structured this piece. Keep it up! :)
