grief snuck up hauled back and gut punched the day the hours and minutes winced and slowed to barely a crawl the day countered with a sharp inhale the sky paled and the strength drained from the earth’s greens and browns the clear blue quickly clouded over and then the rains came |

yes, it does sneak up just when you think you are away from it and then the rains come but the sun always shines again |

yeah, sometimes those gut punches bring a body to their knees...wrenching places we try to avoid, right? Hugs to you |

If caring could be an umbrella... you'd peek from comfort just long enough to see the rainbows. Excellent write, my friend. |

I have heard it time and time again, and always "they" say, "time" heals. I think not, m'self. Days like these come again and again, and the pain of loss is always new, and not a surprise, and yet, it still catches one offguard--like a suckerpunch. You have the words, j.b. *hearthugs* Anyone who doesn't understand should consider themselves temporarily fortunate. |

Hon, I understand these feelings so well. And, like Karen said, sometimes time doesn't heal. With some things we will think we are better about them, then they come right back with that same "gut-punch" and we are right back where we started from. |

Dear Beans of Jelly, you have a way of just reaching out and grabbing the solar plexus ~ and the heart ~ of your readers. I feel your words. You are a wonderfully expressive writer. Sending you an extra-loving hug, EA |

This put me in a certain... how would I describe it... an earthy, weathery mood. Enjoyed. |
