I Have Missed Them

When Jack, my loving dog                                                                                                                                         was killed, I was eleven.

Thirteen at my father's demise;
So much changed after that                                                                                                                                                    

When I was twenty four,                                                                                                                                      grandma died, leaving me crying.

And twenty five years later,                                                                                                                                               my mother departed this world.
