A New For What Was Taken

(25/12/2011)

I don’t fancy what God did to 
me
I had my loss just yesterday
Last memory about her was 
when 
she smiled at me
Couldn’t believe she had gone 
away

Her life was to bargain
With this pure soul I have in 
my 
arms
Until I see her again
I promise I’ll protect him from 
harms

One life was taken, after one 
given 
for the forsaken
Life as it is, we have to 
surrender 
of what it has given

dinda minardi

* many doesnt know what this 
poem try to convey: it is a 
poem about husband's loss of
his wife because of giving birth to their son.

who was this that you lost, Dinda? You have written in a way that shows a mature acceptance of God's plan.

Death is only a momentary experience till we rise at the resurrection. Till then, let the memories you have give comfort dear one. Sometimes our loss is another's gain.

When life is over we go to heaven. That is if we did what God wanted us to do.
