I have another poem up at the Camel Saloon.

Many thanks and much kindness to Russell Streur.

A very fine poem, Rachel. Like a novel in a teacup.

Thank you, Thomas :)

You've captured an experience that every child must have: admiring a parent or a grandparent and wanting to be just like them without really understanding what it means to be them. Trying on their hat (shoes/work gloves) just isn't enough, but I think we've all done it.

My nannan was a remarkable and formidable woman, Helen. Putting on her hat was as near as I ever got to being like her. She did say I had a way with words though and nicknamed me "Razor" for my wit :)

I'm glad the poem connected with you.
