groceries for Mom
fresh flowers
always on the list

lasting a long time
heart-blessings
of a caregiver
and carnations
from a store this week

Poems by Ellen Grace Olinger

Thrift Stores

Daily writing prompt
What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today?

We donate to thrift stores and shop at the same stores. I wonder about the stories. Here are poems from my blogs over the years. Thank you.

warmth on a cold day
sweaters and blankets
from thrift stores

colder weather
time for my favorite coat
from a thrift store

birds in the painting
from the thrift store
forever in flight

cup from a thrift store
on my grandmother’s
straw chest
near the window
fills with light
