I cannot help but picture a graveyard when I read this. Seeing a grieving mother standing there with silent tears. Your imagery grabbed me.

Thank you so much Caren....death may be on my mind...one of my co-workers lost someone in her family monday, though don't know who, just that she was at the school behind me when she got the call and they had to send two people to the school...one to wait with her until family arrived and one to do her route...we all get touched by death... hugs

A poem to read, and read, and read again. To turn over and over and over... To contemplate. Lovely done, Sandra! Blessings, Gershon
