Snippets of Emotions

A mother’s hand holding a child Walk of joy beaming a smile Kids frolicking on playground Happiness of innocent sounds Quarrel of two loving hearts Thunderous clouds soon pass A glimpse, if not ephemeral, Perhaps a rude, unwelcome stare Reality haunting endlessly A blemish on hope eternal Face of grief when tears cease Pain lingering in perpetuity Pink sunrise gleaming eyes Kiss of dawn blushing the skies A cringe voicing displeasure Truth’s way of bemoaning a liar July 27, 2021 Placed 1st: A Brian Strand Your Choice Contest

Nicely done, Vijay! Each moment is apt. Love: Face of grief when tears cease/ Pain lingering in perpetuity/ That rings so true watching my dad count down the months since mom’s been gone. I can’t think too hard about it because it hurts too much. So I go on with life and smile and find joy and kniw one day I will see mom again. <3
