Dearly Beloved

Dedicated to those loved and lost

Dearly beloved …
How can you have gone?
One minute living your life,
The next ~ no life to live
And in my life
A gaping, lifeless, dark hole
Where once shone your living light.
Oh, how I miss you ~
Your touch, your presence, your grace.
Such tangible moments
A sorrow sore borne.

Alas, dearly beloved,
I must go on
Minute by minute living my life
In tribute to your wisdom, love and dignity.
Gradually filling the darkness again
With the light of
Your beloved memory ~
Your beauty, your essence, your face.
For such intangible comfort
I can scarce dream.
Dearly beloved ~ I miss you.

    1. Thank you, Tina. … Bear was, indeed, a wonderful friend. His departure was sudden, unexpected and heartbreaking.

      In case you may be interested, here is the In Memorium post for him from my equestrian blog, published Christmas Day.

      Thanks again, Tina. Be well … 💐🐴😊
