Mourning Light

The soft glow of Life and Love is guiding me out of the abyss of mourning.
Inching my way, emerging with open heart and hands to that which is offered.
Joy and peace my mantra.
I have survived and embrace this beginning.

I wrote this after the deaths of both my husband and my mother. As I began to see a ‘light’ at the end of the tunnel.

  1. In the past couple of weeks, one friend’s mother died, and another friend’s husband died. As I struggle with the “right words,” to say, I appreciate your deep sentiments in these few lines. I struggled for years with my mother’s death and recognize my own feelings in your verse. This is beautiful, thank you.

  2. Every ending holds a beginning but it’s often hard to see at the ending point. As I begin my new journey I look to you as a brave woman who transformed herself after great loss. Hugs, Amiga, Linda
