A PARTY

What you mainly noticed at the luncheon were Grandma’s plants.  She said she wanted a party, and it was exactly the kind of party she would have had – white tablecloths and lots of potted plants.  When we started going through them, we found that many had been sadly neglected in the absence of their gardener.  They missed her too.

She always liked living things.  Plants and people, and she helped cultivate both.  That was mainly what you noticed, looking around the room.  Lots of life that had been shaped by hers.

It was beautiful.
