A Matter Of Preference Comments

I love this poem! I think my favorite line is the part about her heart bleeding more than her fingers.

Yes. This matter of preference is the matter of presence.

Thanks for your inspiring poem about your grandmother.

It warms, delights, and cheers me as it did more than forty years ago, but now I wonder why I chose that yellow cloth to dominate my quilt. a really great poem. thank you for your wonderful thoughts. tony

A lovely poem. What a loving grandmother to make such a quilt in spite of not liking the color yellow! Many grandparents make similar sacrifices, even today, for their grandchildren, and some grandchildren do not even notice. Your grandmother can be proud of the way you have honored her in this poem.

This is a true poem about my grandmother and me. It was published in Panorama, Vol.29, page 84, in 2010.
