# Cranberry > Enjoying fresh ink and memories of my mother and more **Published by:** [trpplffct](https://paragraph.com/@trpplffct/) **Published on:** 2024-12-20 **Categories:** memories, advent, poetry, limerick **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@trpplffct/cranberry ## Content There once was a grandma in Holland who also much loved Albion and would be very merry when eating cranberries and singing a song with an odd end.Every day I open a door in my advent calendar and find a new colour fountain pen ink. To test them, I write a poem inspired by their name. As you can guess, one of the inks was called Cranberry. It's a fun exercise and often the ink names trigger nice memories. An extra gift in this advent season. The Cranberry ink made me think of my mother, who recently passed and loved cranberries. She also loved England and odd songs. So, writing a limerick seemed appropriate. What memories are you cherishing this season?
