In the mansion of memory
there is a hall of broken mirrors,
each shard a scattered playing card
from countless decks of shuffled imagery;
some reflections are too sharp,
too hot, too bright, too sweet
to bear without
the mellowed touch of time.
In episodes grief passes,
tears dry, time heals;
my thoughts are with you,
I wish for you the understanding
and the comfort only time can bring.

How beautiful. What a tender write for our dear Glenn.

And I desperately needed to read something like this tonight, to share with a dear friend who just lost his daughter in a tragic accident. Thank you.

Icebox...I hope it is okay if I take some of this poem to ease my own. Thank you for this, my friend.

(big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, you have a most compassionate heart and I know Glenn will take to heart that through the tears he'll know she will always be daddy's little girl and each and every day she is guiding him from above with love and light! (wipes tears) Glenn deserves all the hugs and support he needs, just as you have that golden heart, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
