It's taken you a long time to write that one Trish, but I knew it would come out eventually. There's a lot of love and pain in that little poem. Hugs xxx

Delicately handled Trish - well done - the sadness is tangible but you've done a good job with the write.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Thanks Heather and Maureen,
Poetry writing can be quite cathartic...if you let it!

Totally agree with Heather and Maureen - the sadness is indeed tangible. A dear friend of mine in England lost her fiancee unexpectedly last week while waiting for further test results, and this poem is uncannily similar to the feelings expressed in her email letting everyone know. A very touching poem indeed Trisha.
