Grief

I wrote this on the one-year anniversary of my father's angel wings. My father liked to write poetry and I told myself I would continue to write in his honor. As I reflected on his life and processed all of my emotions on his anniversary, this poem came to my heart and mind. Many of my friends and family and the world is still grieving from so many changes and losses. It takes time to heal. It isn't an easy journey. Writing is therapeutic for me so I hope this can help heal others who also experience grief and that difficult journey. However, I hope as in the poem we all find peace with this journey and this unavoidable part of life. I want to leave with the reader that there is still hope and the feeling of hope.
