Sparkling Diamonds of Life

Life
                                          enthralled  enchanted
                                    learning  competing  maturing
                                wedding  family  separation  divorce
                                     grumbling  aching  groaning
                                         deteriorating  decrepit
                                                      death

Caren Krutsinger June 11, 2019 at 1:00 AM A wonderful missive; overwhelming how it went from terrific to terribly sad. This is life though. It truly is! Ann Gilmour June 11, 2019 at 1:40 AM Thanks Caren for your lovely comments and sadly this can be true to life; one moment things are going so well, then everything falls apart! A journey that we are here to hopefully learn lessons from, with both the ups and the downs. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
