Hi Janet, your poem is beautifully penned, albeit said. Of special note:

A mother's sorrow, father's grief.
We question who can be to blame?

(We all try to make sense of these things and try to explain the "unexplainable." This is when One's faith in God will see us through.)

Well-chosen comtemplative photo. Keep the blue waters flowing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

One can't make sense when all the boxes are ticked and the consequences of our actions somehow need revision. There are no answers, onky the young man knows, and of course the Lord, Jesus is the light of the world I'm afraid, beautifully written Janet, a super job, well done, blessings Roy

This is uncanny. I was Just thinking of telling a friend of mine how I want to be more loving, more kind, and then I read your poem.
Great work great poem

This is a very moving and touching tribute to a young man you knew but you didn't say how he died so I don't know how to feel about your loss except to say I am sorry for your loss.
My condolences to you and his family.
Thanks for sharing and I hope you make sense of his loss somehow.
Jesse

    Thanks Jesse. We don't know how he died. We are assuming by his own hand since the family is not saying and he was a healthy young man.
    Thank you for reading.
    Blessings
