C A S T A W A Y Before you know it something will come without warning or mercy. With no list at hand of what must be saved even your breath will be taken from you. Woe betide you try to flee with nowhere to hide and no higher ground. Against some things there is no defending only succumbing to life underwater. One thing is certain: in the end you will find refuge, cast away, free of falsehoods, laid bare again on the clean-swept shore of your life. ~ from
My deepest sympathy. A father is a totem, a steadfast light, an anchor..at least mine was. It’s been a year since my Dad left and grounding has been difficult. I wish you family, tears, laughter and sweet, sweet memories
My sincere condolences to you, dear Amanda. I hope that you and your family are well. In a sense, of course, your father will always be with you in your hearts 💕! Loved the poem….
