Powder Blue With Feathers


35 years ago I wore
a dress that was powder blue
with feathers
when Lynne got married in October
in Salt Lake City.
I was 16.

That dress is old and has lost a few feathers hanging in the closet at Kidd Island Bay
Janna found it for me.
Emily wore it for me.
And now I'm ready to be a grandma.
In 16 more years maybe my granddaughter can wear this dress
for Halloween.
