just sounds of tears
falling
and the din,
of drops
dripping

as the beat of hearts
strain

and the love

for one
rains

no words this day
can, true

suffice

now words can pay
this
heavy price

so here one sits
with, head in
hands

please, tell me not
to, understand

a friend, is gone,
not just, from us

the stars have brought
her home

her soul now sails
with, the wind

and with,
the ocean foam


for helen

Well, I have no favorites on this subject - other than Helen of course.  I think it's wonderful that everyone is writing to/for/about her, and beautifully so . . . so I'm just going to add this to everyone's piece so you'll know I was here, read, and experienced again, the tears for her...

I'm happy you are here Richy.  Your writing always brings me comfort...you write from the heart just like Helen did.

Dear Richy, your sorrow is deeply felt in your heartfelt, beautiful words.

Your conclusive words remind me of her picture which she used for some years here on Pip, where she is in midst of the waves and actually seems to rise from the waters.

We shall remember her like this.

Hugs.
Margherita
