The helpful bird has flown away,
The tree of love has died;
The kindness bird has lived its day
Never to return is the tide.

The joyous sun is wearied out,
The trusted moon is gone;
The fun filled stars not seen about,
A cloud floats alone.

No happy laughs, no yells, no calls,
No hearts- soft and warm;
Just a roof with four blind walls,
A house- no longer a home.

The sadness, emptiness, the loneliness, loss, and despair were almost palpable. A painfully ~ yet beautifully ~ expressed piece of writing.

May the kindness bird of love, the stars, and the sun return to brighten your days ~ and nights. May laughter reign again within those four walls.

Giving you a warm, compassionate hug,

Earth Angel

~dearest minoli...

i really felt the loneliness in this writing, especially this stanza:

No happy laughs, no yells, no calls,
No hearts- soft and warm;
Just a roof with four blind walls,
A house- no longer a home.

A touching poem dear Min, sad but well written. Always remember that things are never as bad as they seem, and one day you

will look back and wonder why you were so sad. Look forward, not back, have a big smile on your face and you will feel so much better. Good luck.
