Jewelry-The Key

Once open a time when times were a little

simpler, maybe a little harder.

Who's to say?

Grandma and Grandpa

lived in a old farm house that sat

 on a few acres of land.

My three sisters and I would spend

weekends at Grandma's and Grandpa's.

My grandparents would care for their garden

all week and on the weekends my sisters and I 

would help Grandma sell their vegetables

at the stand in front of their house. 

These were wonderful times. 

Three little girls running and playing.

I remember a game 

my Grandma use to play with us.

"Who will answer the door?"

All three girls and grandma, of course,

would hide just around the corner of the house

as one of us would quickly run to the front door

and knock on it.

Then we would wait.

 Most of the time no one came to the door

but once in a while Grandpa would open the door

and say,"Who's that at my door?" 

We would all giggle quietly as he looked around

but never saw us.

These are just  a few of the memories

my sweet friend Julie shared with me as she 

placed this key in my hand and asked if 

I could make her something with it.

Julie is a school teacher .

She asked if I would make it simple 

so that she could wear it to school.

Here is a key that once opened

a door to a bedroom in the little 

farm house. Now it opens the door

 to many memories.
