My grandma’s garden ~ a PhoneColl

My grandma's garden
Giant chrysanthemums rose over my head
I was just five then
The sun there rose to the smell of fresh bread
I'd go there again!
To listen to Grandma's stories in bed
Weave a daisy chain
Maybe I'll see her with her lipstick red
Calling out my name
