A beautiful butterfly..

Moriah Dennington. Died on June 22nd, 2024 (I am Robert Dennington, the Father of Moriah Dennington. My beautiful daughter passed away on June 22nd, 2024. She became another statistic of the fentanyl

Once Moriah and my daughter played as children at the beach.

Moriah was a beautiful butterfly with a gentle heart.

She lived her life, trying to engulf love and adventure.

Today I cried many tears for a beautiful butterfly,

who I pray had found peace in a safe place.

Beautiful Moriah fought the good fight and

the struggles of life overtook her.

28 years old young woman should be dancing and enjoying life.

Today we remember a beautiful butterfly and

I will remember her smile.

We must be kind to each other. We never know when a beautiful butterfly can leave our view.

A very touching tribute to her,
she's definitely a butterfly now, but I am sure she will come by sometime in the form of a butterfly too.
Life can be unfair but at the same time, we have to remember the greater times with them...🦋🦋🙏🏻🙏🏻

Take care dear poet.

It is truly a tragedy to lose such a beautiful person at such a young age. Having two daughters, I know I would be devastated if something like this happened to either of them. I send you my deepest condolences. She must be flashing her bright smile and beautiful blue eyes in Heaven.
God be with you and yours - take care - Dave

Thank you my friend for reading and the comment. The hardest pain to grasp. Losing a child.

I believe this beautiful being has found herself at peace in heavens above, her heart seems just as pretty and sweet as the sparkles in her eyes and her smile. My hearty good wishes to you for losing such a precious loved one. You have eternalised her sweetness by sharing it amongst your fellow writers and readers, she must be happy and so should you be.

My best regards.

Hard to grasp my friend. Suicide break your heart forever. Some great poet wrote once. Pretty face don't mean happy life. I appreciate the comment.

[Poetic_Vixen]

That's terrible to know and with a solemn heart I feel sorry for such thing, how deceptive our smiles can be that they suppress all our battles inside...I only wish for her peace.
