“Grandma’s Cupboard”

--free verse poem by Jonathan Williamson

 

Some of Grandma’s furniture

lives at our house now.

 

My favorite is a tall wooden cupboard.

It is golden oak, soft and worn,

and it is very,

very old.

 

It takes me back to Grandma’s.

I open its glass doors,

And it smells like her living room

A thousand miles away,

With someone else living in it now.

 

Now, at my own house, in my own living room,

I open the old cupboard doors,

I take a deep breath,

And WHOOSH!

I am back in Grandma’s house once more,

The cupboard says,

“Welcome back!  Good to see you!”
