Full of tenderness and heartfelt words on a sad subject...so nicely written Annette
An emotional poem suggesting consolation by You open your heart for acceptance
The outpouring of emotion is so cathartic, especially at a time of great loss... can totally relate to this piece...as I am certain many other's do, as well. PEACE
A sad time conveyed with love yes why is life like this the poem makes you think of self sorry when dear ones go to heaven... a room full of tears...masterful...regards and thanks
What a compassionate tribute! I especially love the last 2 lines.
a very touching poem Lyn I have felt the pain of loss, your poem brought back many memories.
a very moving poem as it hurts to see others hurting and not be able to ease their pain no matter how badly you may wish too...
Well written poem on a difficult subject. Having been through bereavement I know only too well the feelings involved. Still well done anyway.
This is a big question-Why death? But, this is inevitable. We all know. Very vivid expression. No ambiguity. Loved.
You have put into words what people feel when they lose someone close to them, so beautifully written!
A wonderful descriptive write of a very sad time but reality for all at some point, .a mixture of great sadness and love.10 for sure
Tears surrounded be a wealth of different emotions, well written Lyn with great empathy.
Tender subject very well and feelingly drawn Lyn. Owain's right, it's a subject we all should be more familiar with and less awkward about. I'm inclined towards the old Irish custom of the wake, where the guest of honour turned on a keg for the crowd. That way, a feller might get a more flattering number of mourners. Would be interested in knowing if you've been to any and have written about the experience.
You have covered this subject well. I do not think we discuss death nearly as much as we should. I have no more knowledge than anyone else about what comes after but I do think death should be a celebration and that we should feel the excitement of the unknown. Maybe that would destroy some of the fear.
This excellently penned death and goodbye poem makes us completely emotional. Death is a truth. funeral bed is a sad bed. In rain of sunshine w e try to forget but we cannot forget separated soul. This is an excellent poem really...10
