A Grief Remembered


Stupefying loss
Inane smile on face of grief
Shock reverberates

Inspiration gone
Words fail, inexpressible
Inarticulate

Irreplaceable
Acknowledging sorrow
Inconsolable

Hello Louise

I felt all of these things following the loss of my father to asbestos cancer.  Even now there are times when the grief sometimes washes over me when I lease expect it.  Your words said so much.

Take care......Sue

consolatory
sympathetic affections
lovingly proffered

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

My thanks to all of you for reading and commenting.

Magnus, some feelings we just keep trying to understand and heal.  It helps to express what we can when we can.  Thanks for commenting.

Sue, I  think that you inspired me to get on with my grief work.  Your postings show what marvelous progress you have made in your writing while dealing with your own grief.

Nancy, thanks for reading and commenting.  It helps to know that my writing is comprehensible when I'm writing about feelings that were once a muddle of confusion.

Hi, Sweet Noah!  Thanks for commenting.  And yes, I am out of the deep grief. You are dear to care.

Balladeer, you're very kind.  I am hoping that my descriptions become better and my writing develops a flow of clarity.  Your postings are so smooth and polished.  So suave!

Martie, thanks for commenting.  Your remark was sweet and it just tells me that this is how we develop compassion and wisdom.

Duncan, I enjoy your poems as well.  Thanks for reading and commenting.  In fact, I look for your poems.  I'm still overwhelmed at all the poetry in this site and doing a lot of catch up reading.

Sunshine, boy am I blessed with you!  Loved your reply.  I just can't stop thanking you for introducing me to these pages and all these wonderful people.

Charisma, I'm glad that you liked it and I appreciated the hug.

Interloper, what a lovely reply and so true of you and all the people who commented.

Thanks!
Shenachie
