Dear Linda

by Sandra Stoner-Mitchell

Dear Linda, 

I can’t imagine how you feel, the sorrow in your heart,
to lose your youngest brother, must be tearing you apart; 
a year of loss and so much pain, and yet you soldier on,
while God, who walks beside you, gives you strength to lean upon.

Just like your mom and sister did, now Michael has gone home,
and while you miss him here on Earth, you know he’s not alone.
My love I send you freely, let it wrap around your heart
till you're together once again—where your new life will start.

Dear Linda, you’ll feel joy again, perhaps not yet awhile;
but one day soon your sun will shine, and you will start to smile.

God bless and keep you safe, my friend.
Sandra

I chose the dandelion because as it dies the seeds float off on the breeze to settle and start life anew. It is continuous. Just like when we die, our soul will float off to Heaven to start our life anew.
