| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 09/30/06 at 03:30 AM Chaz, I love this so much. It reminds me of how I feel for Mom, who died in Feb. Not a day goes by that I don't wish for one more day with her. So often she comes to me in my dreams and again I'm reassured. But sometimes the pain of her not being here is just so intense, you know, that ragged, shredded feeling deep inside?

| Posted by Wendy Geal on 01/22/14 at 07:05 PM Just lost my mom 3 weeks ago. This is beautiful and even brought a tear or two. Love: "I see her often, but it takes its toll.
I have to close my eyes and squint real hard
and like a small single cloud filled with
summer rain in the heated desert
she appears, then is gone." Exactly how I feel. <3 Thank you. |
