A good depiction of sorrows felt on the loss of loved one, and the spiritual strength which is drawn to bear the irreplaceable loss with fortitude. A lovely piece of poetry, well articulated and nicely penned with spiritual insight. Thanks for sharing John. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
Beautiful and lovely. Our loved ones only sleep in the Lord. Good work friend. God bless you
