cruel tide

grief is such a cruel tide,

yet i find reasons 

for heartfelt gratitude—

flipping through old cookbooks &

magazines,

those hugsmaking 

everything better...

as memory lives,

so they too carry on.

you'll always know it's sting;

some days more others less.

take heart, you're hidden under a wing—

the comforting comes for mourning.

just one reason more, for my beholdeness...

Praying for those that grieve.
