the hidden heart of a family history
creaking and squeaking through time
behind spiderwebs and water marks
Stained scratched dented worn away
scuffed splinters snap in all the same places
stained red wine where glasses used to dry
splashed with sauce from the pot on the stove
Good holiday dishes chipped after many meals
generations of memories living on shelves
grandfather to father to son
grandmother to mother to daughter
Traditions celebrated across many decades
old wooden cabinets standing solid and sturdy
witnessing a special history in the kitchen
passed along with the secret family recipes
