Why I Loved C D 's Poem Better Days

This poem of Carolyn touched my heart deeply. Going through this poem I recollected my intimate friend whose sudden demise had wiped out half of colors of my life. One who is lucky to have a True Friend, knows well how much painful is the loss. Emotions and Feelings of Carolyn always moved me. We were tied in a tender bond of mutual likings. I expect, P.S. will choose three poems of Carolyn to be included in coming Anthology. WHY I LOVED C.D’s Poem ‘Better Days’ The sun will break again for you, my friend From out of darkness into light, you’ll tread Your grief, it will subside and may soon end And I’ll be with you on the road ahead Recovery’s road goes both up and down These months without your mate have left you frail But cast away the tears; you will not drown It’s time that you remove your mourning veil Look up to see the friends who stand by you We know your loss, but struggle to express And still, we’re standing by till you pull through So when grief calls, don’t fret or acquiesce You will not have to make this trip alone A new start waits till past this grief you’ve grown 08/27/21 First Place Celebrating Carolyn's Poetry Contest by Andrea Dietrich
