This bracelet is for my oma who died almost two years ago. I wrote a little poem to go with it. It's not very good, but meaningful to me. Love

Oma's bracelet S7304155

Oma
Lieve oma
Met spierwit haar
Vuurvaste handen en twinkeloogjes

Oma
Lieve oma
Schillen kon je
Touwtjespringen nog beter

Oma
Lieve oma
Washandje voor de tranen
En een gebroken hartje in de tuin
Like a Star @ heaven Like a Star @ heaven Like a Star @ heaven

Great bracelet Naranja, and your tivoli bead is a perfect match.

And you're absolutely right, the poem isn't good ... it's great!! I can see her before me.... Love

Dear Naranja,

This is a very lovely bracelet and an even lovelier poem!

Omas are the best and I can feel in your poem and your bracelet that yours loved you very much Love

Mine I called Omi and though she has been gone a long time, she still is with me as I can feel yours is still with you Hug

The combination of deep blue and pure white looks so tender. I can sell how much you loved your oma.

I feel I know your Oma, she seems just like mine, who is dead now nearly thirty years but I still smile back when I remember the smile in her green eyes. That's what poems are all about anyway, our deepest sentiments - it's lovely, just like the combo you made for her! Hug

Beautiful Naranja, your Oma must have been a very special person and she must be so proud of you. I associate the colours you have used with Delft chine (my own mum loooves that stuff) - is there a connection?

Thank you everyone, for your sweet and thoughtful comments. They lift my spirits I love you

Thank you Sil Hug. My oma collected tin decorations such as roses and glass vases with a tin layer, but she wasn't used to buying things as she never had much to spend. I think my grandparents had blue/white tiles in their fire place and kitchen before their house was renovated but I wasn't born then. My mother is crazy about Boerenbont (see: https://www.google.nl/search?q=boerenbont&sugexp=chrome,mod%3D4&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=nl&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=KvixUPPdDsm4hAe_l4GwBA&biw=1920&bih=1099&sei=LPixUNT3IoXW0QXIqoHADQ) and the OOAK I bought in Tivoli reminds me of that pattern.

@Naranja, this bracelet is a stunning beauty as I'm sure your Oma was as well. Lovely poem too!

@Rainbow, I'm SO sorry to hear about your Oma passing. I lost mine this summer too. I wish you lots of strength for the coming period. I'm sure you have lots of happy memories to help you through.

Hug to all of you who lost their Omas. Mine died 10 years ago and I still miss her. She was my link to Austria.
