Pearls Swing
John Clare Stokes
Gerald gave Pearl's swing a fresh coat of
white paint just in time for Mother's Day. The last memory of grandma Carter was on the porch, the climbing roses at her back, the little grand children on either side, simple plaid cotton dress, hair up in the netted bun, no make-up of course,
The same place she later had the massive stroke, Melanie noticing her swinging, staring far, far away.
