Ah Donna - your journey continues. Such melancholy beauty in how you are processing your grief in your poetry. The repetition you have used is wonderfully done - it's a great technique to enhance the thought or feeling. I use it a lot, in fact I started a poem on my walk this morning, typing it onto my phone, and there were several of those repeating moments, so I felt such a connection to your poem as I read it through. Thank you for sharing this with us here at Move Me.
