Breath Of Life Comments

A heart-felt poignant poem. I too had lost my daughter who died soon as she was born long years back, and then my father who died in my arm at the age of 102. Death is very touching, always, despite all the wisdom that we know about death being a liberator..

Fighting my tears, Trying to be brave, I kneeled down to kiss him, But he still was dead. Soon he will go in ground, managing grief....... grief that remains with us always..... this is an experience......which at last leads us to God............ nothing is in our hands. God should come into our lives and help us in grief, in affliction. a great poem. tony

A painful experience written with deep emotions. A courageous and heart touching write.

Pardon me Lucifera It would not allow me to save nor vote x

A heartfelt write that I have read sometime a go, this time I have saved it. Thank You Lucifera, I have saved this too.

Shadows never vanish but lost somewhere within the mind...hummers well, nails and hangs, laugh and cry...continue...up to unending end..when thread of breath broken dream broken transforms into the dream of another mind...

I feel bad for you, Lucifera...Nothing can replace what you have lost...But then that's what life is all about...

A poignant melancholic poem written with beautiful expression, The vacuum was felt so intensely! ! ! Very nice, Lucifera.

A searing and moving poem. It costs a lot to write such a poem but it is a tribute to you and the passing of your nephew.

Truly a vivid piece of work.

a beautiful breathe taking poem. a terrible experience to deal with. I feel you.

A great piece of writing. The sadness combined with your eventual loneliness, Holding the body in your arms for the last time....oh my God. I feel it all through. Keep writing. Mohabeer Beeharry Read my last poem The Cross when you get time and comment please.

@Lyn Paul, You have spoken my mind. Thank you.

There are no words in any language that can console a grief stricken mother as you are. All I can pray is may God rest his soul in eternal peace and may He be with you in bearing this grief. Remembering, How a child looks, With his breath of life extinguished………………… These words break our heart too, Lucifera!

I can only imagine. Great job on it.

A heart-rending poem with the harsh reality of your beautiful child dying with the raw emotions of your love for your child that will live forever. Excellent write!
