Chloe

Sally,  just woke up and turned and

saw a note on the side

of her bedside table.

Written by a child

In crayon.

She opened it up

and sat up in bed

and read it.

Dear Mum, I know you are very sad

and upset. And miss Chloe very much.

I am sorry she died, Mum. I love you very

much and Chloe too. Love Wendy.

ps Daddy helped me with this letter for

you.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

And she broke down crying.

In walked her husband with Wendy.

And they climbed into bed either side of her

and cuddled Mummy. And all cried.

The next day

They visited Chloe's grave

and placed the letter on her grave

inside some beautiful bluebells

Chloe favourite flowers.

That grow in their own garden

that she loved. Along with her

Mr Teddy all wrapped up in a

protective cover Specially made

for them all.

Oh the sadness of losing a loved one so dear- makes us appreciate what we have- but then again many still take life and people for granted - i wish i could wave a wand and remove all heartache tears snd pain make people aware of the small important things that money cannot buy- wonderful words- love and comfort being sent your way🌹

Thanks, Kelly, just a poem that was in my mind. And felt the need to write. As no one should ever be forgotten. Dawn.

what a sad poem but then in one way or another i want to tell people i love the most on how i appreciate them despite the busy schedule before it is too late

To lose a child is such sadness, to lose a sibling no less. Always speak the name of those who have gone. No awkward silences, let them be remembered not hidden away. Lovely words Dawn, made me tearful. Hope you are doing OK. How goes it?

Hi Chris, ups and downs to be honest. He is having a hard time in general with his health, constant tired and headaches and low blood pressure. But thanks for asking. I agree always talk about them and remember them. Sorry I made you tearful Chris. Just had this poem in mind. As it was important. Last day or two. And wrote it. How you are good? Dawn.

[Chris Shaw]

Good to shed a little tear. Only do that when the lines really ge
t through. Yours did. Sorry you are both having a tough time. Hope things improve, you deserve it. All reasonable here, not brilliant, but reasonable. Thankful for small mercies.

Chris, anytime you need a chat or mate to lean on. Drop me a line. Mean it Dawn. And I agree sometimes shedding a tear does help. Ups and down on the old roller-coaster of life Chris. It never gets boring. LOL at least I can laugh. Dawn.

[Chris Shaw]

Roller coaster sums it up well. Sometimes I get giddy and want to get off. Thank you for your generous spirit and kindness.

sad but this gives a feeling to not force ourselves to get away from loved ones who are no more.....they are always in the memories cherished together!!
