Haiku 285
Shadows sometimes glimpsed
From the corner of my eye
Where you used to be
.
Dear WordPress friends. Thank you for your kind, heartfelt comments on my last post.
The love you shared gave me strength,
And it is what makes the world a better place.
post script: The photo is of an Arum Lily by my stoep, with shadows cast on it from the sun filtering through the leaves on the grape vine above.
Oh Scifi, what a terrible tragedy. Keep your beautiful memories in your heart and look ahead.
I hug you.

You captured my thoughts perfectly! I often see those I loved just out of the corner of my eye and it gives me peace. Stunning flower makes me think of porcelain and love. I don’t know why. And I don’t care. Thank you.

Yes, Arum lilies do have a porcelain look about them.

It’s people like you who make this world a better place….people who fight through deep sorrow from the loss of loved ones, determined to put one foot in front of the other and to keep moving forward,
I pray you have gentle and fun memories of your husband and sister…the kind of memories that help to heal your heart.
Your Haiku and photo speak volumes. It warms my heart to have you back in the blogging community. Sending you all the strength and love and friendship I have.
