Wow! What a blend of love and respect.
This made me smIle! Lovely haiku, Babs!
Beautiful tribute 💙💙💙
Great haiku! ❤️ And I remember all the aprons back then and I loved ladies with blue hair when I was young. Now I could have blue, purple, whatever and I can't dye my hair or it could fall out permanently I'm told. I have alopecia.😊💕
Poignant.
So sweet and comforting! And I loved how you included the blue in the last line!!
Awww, this was so heartwarming! Loved it!
Phenomenal! I love the nostalgia!
Aww. I miss grandma's homemade bread
Amazing we both had the same thought/subject. My first 2 lines are almost the same but I couldn't get the last line right!---so not going to publish but it was going to be something like hanging on to the apron strings to keep her memory alive. Just wanted to to know how coincidental it was. Lovely nostalgic image!
