“I love you, dear Grams”,
the little note read
when I put back the pillow
on the guest sofa bed.
Another note gave me
a "kiss and a hug" -
I found it tucked under
the small kitchen rug.
The freezer was next
where a yellow slip told me
(though the message was frozen)
“I’ll miss you, my grammy".
Without hunting, I found
in each Little room
some words in a sugar bowl -
some tied to a broom.
Weeks, then months, Later
the numbers had mounted,
and thirty seven Love notes
were all that I counted.
Then two days ago,
what surprise did I find?-
Among some old trinkets
a final note signed:
"To Grams –
With Love
From Lynn."
