jar,
a reddish orange jelly
packed tight
within
the stump of glass.
a secret recipe that would
be lost
to the grave.
it won the blue ribbon
at countless
state fairs.
a favorite of judges
from carolina
to richmond.
a pepper jelly to be
proud of,
and she would talk
about it
until the day she died,
almost
too much
truthfully.
