Ben Gieske - Quilted Today

“In the past those whom you love
................don’t ever die.”
....From “Vertumnus”, a poem
...........by Joseph Brodsky

...............dough bowl
.holding fresh-picked flowers
.....captured surplus of blue

..........Grandma’s hands
...kneading apple-pie dough
......lingering cinnamon air

....reflections of the season
........seasoned memories
........weathered and worn

...........setting the mood
..............quilted today
