His death was so quick, no goodbye or farewell kiss; each day I replay this grief. In a moment gone, his eyes staring heavenward; at his tomb I weep. ___________________ August 18, 2017 Sedoka/Death Is Cruel Copyright Protected, ID 931651 Written for the contest, Oh, How I Miss You sponsor, Cecelia Hopkins-Drewer Eleventh Place

Such a beautiful written poem, yeah death is really cruel, you don t even know that what s going to happen in next moment, you can t even do anything apart from accepting it, remember this life is only to test us, we somehow have to pass it and make our God pleased, we all shall be reunited in Heaven, may God bless
