In Memorium
by Genevieve Sturrockthree blonde heads
framed in flowers
candle lit and
bowed in prayer
arms clasped tightly
round each other
mourning wife
and missing mother
02/19/2009 Author's Note: she was younger than me and her sons' hair is the exact same shade as my own little man's...i simply cannot stop crying at the sight.

| Posted by Joan Serratelli on 02/19/09 at 05:10 PM I'm sorry for our pain. Very well expressed. |
