AAAAA-men!! You have expressed yourself beautifully -- made us see, hear, feel. . .weep! Your mom and dad would be so proud of you. No, ARE. They are looking down with awe!! Obviously, you got the best possible combination of the great traits each of them
possessed in abundance. Add to them your talent and flair. . .amazing!!! Love 'n' Hugs, 'Pea' <3

This is so moving! You did a wonderful job of expressing yourself and telling this family story through poetry. The ending was so hopeful, and positive, a great ending to this emotional piece.

Sasia, writing is an excellent way of coping. You're not alone in your feelings. I'm glad that you're willing to share them, and I thank you for doing so. It let's those who miss their parents know we have much in common. I miss mine, too, and I also write about my desire to see them again. Still it's a relief to know that they don't have to suffer anymore. Before my mother's death, I kept wishing that I could make her young again. She had lost the ability to do all the things she enjoyed most. My dad, like yours, also died a few years before her. He was in great pain. His every breath was labored. When he died, I thanked the Lord that he didn't have to suffer anymore.
Even so, I dearly miss them both, and that feeling won't go away.
Love and prayers,
Patty

Although I read this delightful story/poem whenever you first posted it, I have just sat down and started my reviews. I had to write this review because as a parent and grandparent this write is a timeless treasure, Poet!!! It should be posted at every school and in every child’s bedroom!!! It was an absolute pure joy to read!!! Thank you for posting this priceless piece.
P.S. I did make a copy of it and took it to my eldest son’s home, and stuck it on the frig!!! They all got a kick out of it!!!

Sasia, enjoyed reading this very much! Funny how we as parents end up sounding like our parents did years ago. I am looking forwrd to the day when my kids say in disbelief "I sound just like my dad!"
Looking forward to reading more of your work. I invite you to read my poem 'This is Fatherhood?'

We all deserve our Bill of Rights Sasia, and the title of your poem. The first time I heard it was from a convict in the joint. "Wbat goes around comes around. All that goes up must come down." I was impressed by it then and now. But less so now. For there are always shades of grey nad this is so emphatic a saying that it is not always true. Loved the admonitions. And most things do happen this way. Bill

You offer in this poem seems very worth accepting. It reveals a hurt filled with love ... waiting for her someone to take the call. Hugs. Bill
