Stories Within Wrinkles
Wrinkles share many stories
Her rosy cheeks that hold up her loose skin every time she smiles and laughs
The day her first grandchild was born
Watching him grow up and overcome obstacles
Sending him off to college in another state
Attending his wedding with his high school sweetheart
Wrinkles share many stories
The creases on her forehead grow in numbers when she worries
Losing her youngest grandson and granddaughter to foster care
Trying to pay bills with money she doesn’t have
Keeping her husband in good health
Feeding her family every day with what food she can find
Wrinkles share many stories
The deep lines under her sparkling eyes from the tears she has shed
Mourning family and friends
Ray was her ray of light
Fifty-six years spent together up until the very end
The ray of light dimmed in her life
