i have no words for this. i cannot speak to another month passing under the light of a full moon. that i miss him? oh, God, yes. that i want him back? t'would be my fondest desire yet unnatural. that i want to join him? it is not for me to choose the time or the how.that i have to keep going? yes. i draw for him. i sew for him. i quilt for him. i write for him. i hope he can see. i hope he is proud. i close my eyes and remember all the other things i have made, and here his voice as he complimented me, and his eyes, that twinkle, that softening as his love put its warmth around me. he was my biggest fan.
i hope he is waiting.
please, dearest God, let him be waiting for me. "i want him so. i need him so. i love him so."

Dear WomanNshadows,
I can't look at the moon in the same way ever again. I'll always see your Dragon for that's how I think of him. He was never the Marine Corps', he was always yours. He'll always be yours. Woman, you have it within you to bring tears to my eyes and I haven't cried since Vietnam. I wish for the time to pass to lessen your pain. I am always here for you.

Beautiful moon. Even I can see Dragon in it.
As I was outside last night in the dusk and the almost full moon was shining brightly on our little town, I thought of you and your Dragon. He is waiting and loving you.
So sorry for your pain, I stumbled across your blog searching for a poem for my grief and comfort blog about my mother.
My ex husband passed away eight months ago and I have grieved hard as the ex wife. Hope things lighten up for you, God bless.
thank you all. on the nights that the moon is its fullest, i fall up to the sky.
