Loss

Deep Loss
by Tamara Money

Death, Loss, Sorrow
What can comfort
Thoughts, dreams, tears
Who can gather
When pain is constant,
Can death be the only release
For we know what lies ahead
No tears, No loss, No Sorrow
No more suffering
Who can empathize
Truly one can
Amidst pain
There is deliverance
To a life true and free
Never ending and glorious
Until we meet again
Let us not live in anguish
Regretting
what was not
what cannot take place
Love endures
Forever
Strength is given
In loving arms
Only in loss
Can we understand
The blessings of life
Through those
who come and go
This world is not our home
It is only a path
Thus we give ourselves
To eternity

We will meet again, Praise the Lord.


In dedication to Sandy Adams, who waits in anticipation for our arrival.
