Poem :- My Grandmother by Elizabeth Jennings
"My Grandmother" by Elizabeth Jennings explores the relationship between the personae and her grandmother. It focuses on the remorse and guilt she felt after her grandmother passed away.
Elizabeth's grandmother owned an antique shop, which she cherished more than anything or anyone. She kept lots of antiques. She kept so many of them that they became to dictate your life. She has a great relationship and a passion with her possessions.
In the antique shop there was heavy furniture, which had been faded over the years. There was a good atmosphere in the shop. She polished the objects and antiques very well. It was a well-run shop. When she looks in the brass she sees her own reflection. She has a better relationshiponship with the shop than any of her family, or friends.
Her Grandmother asked her Granddaughter if she would go out with her but she refused and thought her Grandmother would own her but not love her. She felt abstinent, and felt she should have gone with her, but also had to say what she felt. She did not want to go with her, so she said 'no'.
She was starting to feel guilty about refusing to go out with her grandmother.
She walked into her grandmothers room and saw all of her belongings, which was in there, and realised that she needed none of it. She never used of it. It was just walked. In her room there was dust or finger marks where the dust would be collected over a day or two. It was beginning to show because she was not there to clean it.
