A Moment In Time

A moment in time I remember a hot summer night unusual hot for a Nordic country all windows were open. My mother, brother and sister sat around a table drinking coffee. It was a glorious moment my happiness was so intense I cried I knew this moment would not be repeated. My brother kidded me, I take so quickly to tears but I could not tell him the why Without them, I feel so utterly alone, and they died too early there was no time for a farewell. I live in a foreign country the past is a treasured memory.

Such a poignant piece of writing, Jan. I wondered what happened to your mother and your siblings. You say "they died too early."
