G Forms - Grook Poetry Contest - Constance La France, Theme 1. Death --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "All our affections are at the mercy of death, which may strike down those whom we love at any moment." Quote by _ Bertrand Russell sitting with tears watching a foolishly blurred vase doodling flowers, a sun, a river, a hut, a range of hills, hills, hills, I fill the voids in my tender heart created by my kith and kin washed away without a trace to the sea when massive hill fell on a sleeping village.

Congratulations, Thriveni. I am so sorry for your loss and I could feel your pain. My brother went to the hospital Christmas Eve for Covid and died there, 25 days later. We could not see him while he was there. I hope time would ease your pain. Blessings to you.

Thriveni, I can't imagine the grief you are feeling and have endured with such a loss as this one. Not only you but so many others that I am sure you knew who also loss family members and friends. Thanks for sharing these feelings with us. So many happenings in life remind me to be thankful for all the rich blessings that I have. I don't know if this one is a winner because I haven't checked out the winners list, but it reads like it probably is one. Sara K
