Love this Lyn, what a story you have told with such insight that brings to life a beautiful person that you have never met! Brilliant write!
Reminds me of my grandfather. I am touched. Thank you.
It is always a pleasure to look at the photographs of those long since gone - especially the old ones which were perhaps taken when times were harder, and people were closer than in modern times. A beautiful poem Lyn, expressing a lovely sentiment.
a picture reveals more than words, it mirrors a mind too. lovely write, Lyn.
Very Beautiful poem Lyn. I would rather say regarding your poem this way... Its a blessing with a photograph you could understand the beauty of ones heart. Especially when near ones couldn't understand it. Beautiful lines.... The pain you have suffered is now released The pain left behind is unbearable To not see the pain in your eyes any longer is a blessing Yet to no longer see your eyes is pure heartache.... Again I will tell its a blessing when you feel heartache for lost soul... Your poem is fantastic and I could feel as if its poured out from your heart. Really loved reading it.
Excellent words all from a photograph with thoughts we all have had...pain and love expressed makes you feel it with the words... well done indeed...regards
