Very much enjoyed this. Especially love the two grandparent lines. Echoes of Heaney's 'Digging', which is high praise indeed.

I really enjoyed this poem: fathers father, yesterday’s news, soup- ( ex-doesnt need to be original- mothers recipe) I like the nature paragraph too. i write poems very rarely though- there was one you brought to my mind-Thanksgiving Soup- one ingredient was a knitter in the car, (who was me). your bonfire soup brought back memories and also kept me with your moment. ❤️Keep writing & inspiring others.
