Your poignant words and deep grief touched a soul that still mourns my parents and others. I don't think this ever goes away and a good thing, as their lives left a legacy, even if coping takes time, lots of time. I'm also wishing you peace.Kittie Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756250649095903317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-74854750208894004622011-12-04T09:31:15.358-08:002011-12-04T09:31:15.358-08:00My condolences David.

I read this line several times: "Death struck me as a sickly and a mean thing, not at all mighty, a hobgoblin panhandler that had stolen the vibrancy and magnificent from her face."Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931248631361366673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-15529226404741886902011-12-04T01:44:43.805-08:002011-12-04T01:44:43.805-08:00Sad and yet words have to pour out, to make sense ...Sad and yet words have to pour out, to make sense of the loss...it is our way of coping with what the mind wants to be distracted from. <br />And the last para said so much more...<br />Take care, consolations are only words at the end of the day but have the power to heal.Rek Seshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484322426994645221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-56256194952883237812011-12-04T01:34:27.097-08:002011-12-04T01:34:27.097-08:00Poignant words, beautifully written.
