| I had to smile when I read your review on my poem, Mother. I surely do have a southern accent. My mother has Alzheimer's disease and slowly dies. Your poem, Dad, breaks my heart. Tears fill my eyes. I,too, lost my father to cancer 3 years ago. My condolence to you Andy Turner. I am so sorry. Your poem is deeply felt and moving... |

Many of us can relate to this Andy..
alas my parents left this world while I was not nearby..They lived in Australia while I am living in Croatia..they had sis and bro at their side so that makes it easier on me..however memories do their thing and many-a-time I find myself thinking of the days when life was simple and secure bathed in their love..
Touching poem,
Blessings,
vesna :) |

A heartfelt portrait lovingly painted by a son in whom this stalwart friend and father lives on. I love that picture, too, and your dear Mum's eyes say it all. So alive, so vibrant.
Today, I want to carve
Weeping words in the sky
... such authentic words and emotion here. Faith-filled as well as honouring lament, Andy. xx |

| I can relate to this Andy. I lost my dad in 2005. The first year is the hardest, especially around the holidays or his birthday. But it does get better as you heal. Patrick |

What a tender, loving tribute and by the dates it appears the wound is still fresh. Makes the holidays a tad harsh. Though his years in this realm were ample, it doesn't comfort the loss much.
Wishing you comfort & happiness Andy.
