Without a Parting Kiss

Running with the van of death, till her legs couldn't defeat the wheels
Lonely road in awful calmth, not a shoulder for cry and share
Covid hit her love went far, without even a parting kiss.

So sad, to lose a loved one without being able to kiss or speak words of love to them in their last few minutes of their life on Earth. Beautifully expressed Jenish ...

A searing image you've created, Jenish. May these times eventually be forgotten. Cheers, Gershon
