Just Pictured

Contemplating life…

 

   Just Pictured

Let go not the same
As not cared for just pictured
In a different frame

Holding Close

Contemplating holding on…

 

   Holding Close

The moment’s not walled
Off in time every year and
Every day recalled

Along with the pain
Holding the joy close. Blessings
Mixed constant refrain

Contemplating still there…

Unable But

Contemplating how…

 

   Unable But

Frozen by the chill
Of loss unable but somehow
Responsible still

A friend struggles on
Watching helpless can let him
Know he does belong

Contemplating I don’t know…

Hugs and Smiles

Contemplating missing…

 

   Hugs and Smiles

When she’s finally gone
And there’s no more hugs and smiles
How does life go on?

His Vigil

A year ago I wrote about a friend’s loss. This year I write about him…

Contemplating strength…

 

   His Vigil

A man stands alone
Surrounded by the family but
His face turned to stone

He will not dessert
His vigil but can’t show the
Overwhelming hurt

Mother never met
My son. Now he’s a married
Man. Some tears I’ve let

Crazy As

A couple weeks ago we lost an old friend and family member. So, this week’s for man’s best friend and my daughter’s broken heart…

Contemplating crazy…

   Crazy As

Hurricane. No breeze
Crazy as he was still he
Was eager to please

We Grieve

Contemplating grief…

   We Grieve

Wishing it a lie
But knowing it’s not we grieve
More tears and goodbyes

Feelings encumbered
The joy and the hurt of it
He’ll be remembered

His Champion

Contemplating care…

   His Champion

Late a kid cries out
And a dog runs to protect
Snuggled in. Love so stout

Then his dog choking
Kid comforts his champion
Murmurs and stroking

At Peace

Contemplating strength…

   At Peace

Departing the vet’s
A young son comforts his mom
He’ll run. Heaven lets

Him join his brother
In heaven he’ll be at peace
It’s ok mother…
