The father's stories

He was a story-teller,
But he repeated his stories year after year.
My sisters
Floated among the fish in their plates
But I, I was fascinated by eternity.
I always waited for the moment
When my grandfather dies again.

Background: The main hero of the father's stories was his own father- a man with a laughter bigger than life. He died before my mother was born. My mother speaks.
