I used to live in May~A poem I wrote




I used to live in May brilliance,warmth and


laughter filled my days

I used to live in May
Then you died and went


away

Now darkness,cold,and crying fill my days


I used to live in May

Come back,Come back I say .


For when you were here
I used to live in May.

Louise,
You have expressed your loss in a very sad but beautiful way. Without a doubt Keren is watching you and must be so proud of all you have accomplished and overcome these last two years. I know that Keren's death was like walking through a terrible fire and the scars will remain with you always but I am glad you chose to survive when many others would not have. Love,
Phyllis
