Magpie Tales-Sotto Voce


voices whisper
in my dreams
some long gone
some just gone 
but none forgotten
cause me to smile
 and laugh
trying to catch up
 on the latest news
I awake
tears running
down my cheeks
then I remember
and smile
happy

    I too like the idea that you remember those more distant.

    I liked the simple honesty and optimism in the grief

    I like how spend your dreams "trying to catch up on the latest news." If only we could. My Magpie this week is A Plot Both Great and Grand.

    A brave, upbeat way of dealing with the pain of loss .... remembering the happy, funny times ... very nicely done.
