A Follow-Up

Several days ago I reposted a poem of mine,
because it was the favorite of a dying friend.
His death was on March 31st. I traveled to
suburban Atlanta to be near his family and to
attend the funeral. There, I saw friends who
I had not visited with for a decade or two.

In between funeral events, I was the guest of
a favorite granddaughter and husband, with
whom I spent high quality time, to include
two very young children. In the next few
days I will be sharing with you strong views
of life and how it ends as other lives begin.

The passing of a dear friend is always a sad and reflective time, I am sorry for your loss Bill. On a happier note spending time with a new generation of one's family sort of completes the circle some how.
peace and love, Carole~

Although the death of your friend is tragic, the time spent with your grandaughter was much needed...and I'm looking forward to reading what both events have taught you.
