This is absolutely lovely, Sandra, and I know it will bring comfort to Judi in her time of grief. Many of us have walked in her shoes and know the pain of loss of a loved one. This is well done. Nancy:)

    Thank you, Nancy. You're right, there are many on FS who have lost loved ones, but it doesn't get any easier to write that poem, knowing that person is hurting so badly. I feel so sad for Judi. Thanks, dear friend, for reading my poem. Love you lots, Sandra xx

Dear Sandra, I don't believe I've read any of your expressions in poetry before, but this is very beautiful. Your words are touching and the poetic form is lovely. There are so many memories of things we did together--vacation times, times with family, etc. I am fortunate to have them. I am amazed at all the outpouring of support and prayers I've received throughout Dick's illness and his death. What a wonderful group here at FanStory. judi

    We are family, Judi, you hurt, we all hurt. I'm really pleased you liked my small offering. Keep all your memories close to your heart, they really do help. As for the Fanstorians, they are a wonderful group, they've helped me through a lot. Take care, dear friend, we'll always be here for you. Love you lots. Sandra xx

    Thank you, Ulla. I was so upset for her when I read Dick had died. I do hope it will help. At least she knows all her Fanstory family care about her. Thanks, my friend. Sandra xxxx

This indeed was a beautiful poem, Sandra. The picture was wonderful with the field of flowers and the tiny little butterfly. Your words to Judi were fantastic, reminding God was there with her tears. She was special and her loss of Dick was incredible. She definitely has my prayers. Blessings, smiles n hugs!!!

Wonderful piece expressing sympathy for a sad situation. I think the long, languid lines created the appropriate somber mood, the images spoke of happy times in the past lost in losing someone dear. It's always hard to lose someone who towered over your life. We have to look to the promise of God to reunite us in the next life, the next world. Your poem speaks of that too. estory

Yes, I know God is there to comfort Judy. Thank you for sharing this with us. I just, a few moments ago, figured out Judy and I have been friends for about 12 years. I am praying for her, their family, and their friends.

Oh, Sandra! This is the first I've heard of Judi's loss. It happens to us all. We lose our loved ones. We lose ourselves. Yet never is it expected. Never can it be planned for. Your poem, Sandra, stands alone as a beacon of hope for Judi. It was so tenderly felt and so beautifully written. I hope you can somehow find her home address and have your poem copied onto very fine, delicate paper and then mailed to her. Such stirring words!

I have no sixes, Dear, but I needed to tell you how important your poem is and how well it is received!

Jay

    Thank you, Jay. It took me a while because I didn't want to sound maudlin. I only heard this morning, it was such a shock. I'd been in touch with her all the while Dick was in hospital. I honestly didn't expect to hear this. So sad. Thank you, my friend. I think the poems for Judi will be made into a book and sent to her. Love and hugs. Sandra xx

Yes, Judi now enters the chamber of wonder. What relationship one has with God is private and the two only knows so well. My heart and prayers are for her as she walks the road of memories.
How nice is your poem of comfort. Well done, Sandy.

Oh my goodness Sandra, this is such an amazing poem, apart from it being truly heartfelt and emotional, your rhyming and metre is excellent. This is a skilful write written from a very talented pen and I wish I had six stars for you, a joy to read and if there was a contest, this poem would most certainly win. Your words are sweet and caring with good wholesome advice. Judi is going to love your words here as I have, love Dolly x x x
