Being A Widow Poem by Deanna Samuels
Being A Widow
Only a widow will know what you mean
To lose that dear man, you were one of a team
To be part of a group that know only couples
The comfortable feeling of being a double
Then suddenly life changes and one is a single
The doubles are gone, its more difficult to mingle
And as you adjust to that widowhood scene
One looks for new friends with much the same dream
But its never the same with those years that one shared
The secrets, desires, the hopes that were paired
But life will go on with what path you ere choose
Fulfil all those goals, your dreams not to loose
(Penned at Richmond Hill, Ontario - 6th April 2011)
Beautiful rendition of words elegantly embellished with poetic rhyme and rhythm. Really a passionate piece of poetry, very heartfelt.
A touching poem, Deanna. It puts the reader in the widow's shoes.
Then suddenly life changes and one is a single The doubles are gone, its more difficult to mingle But life will go on with what path you ere choose Fulfil all those goals, your dreams not to loose.. At the end there is determination again to continue to live. that is fine. thank you very much. tony

Neither woman nor man were meant to be alone, Like so many other creatures, that pair, on their own. A sad but realistic poem, full of sentiment. Beautifully written, touches the heart, knowing that what was said is all so very true.
