And just when all the
beginnings
has to end
even the best ones.
And how one faces
it with a smile,
when all you’ve ever
wanted is forever?
And there you start
anew, despite
of not wanting
to let go.
And then oblivion
comes; forever
is again, yet
another word….
Between here and there
Exquisite with an apt photo .. how deeply profound 😦
Thanks kate..as each elevator ride requires a way out…every ending no matter how difficult will always have a way out..
so true, what a sensitive and loving mother you are 🙂
Thanks Kate…we just laid to rest Zoe yesterday…it was difficult..it was ubearable but we were able to hold on to our emotions…my daughter was si brave for finishing her eulogy without breaking down…i believe the suggestions you made and that of the rest here in WP…helped a lot..
and we are all holding you both along with Zoe and her loved ones in our heart as this transition happens … never easy but love and support help heal 🙂
Thanks so much kate🤗🤗😇😇😇
Forever. Infinity. This evokes a lot of emotions.
Indeed Yassy..there’s just so many in there.
Yes. You said it well.
Thanks Yassy
Wow I love that photo. Are beginnings continuations of endings, just in another direction? I see you’ve had a loss, I’m sorry. May you keep with you all the happy moments and let go of the sad.
Thanks Deb..beginnings could really ne just continuations of an ending yet in another direction…that’s a really brilliant thought Deb, thank you..
Thanks, I just read about Zoe, how sad. I did not realize you could get ovarian cancer at such a young age. My heart is with you, your daughter and all of Zoe’s family and friends.
😇😇😇😇
P.s. the photo was taken by my daughter ..
She has quite the eye, it’s such an intriguing shot.
i have been away without internet for a few days, just reading this. You raised a brave and compassionate child. revel in the love she shows to others, peace will descend. and life even like an elevator that goes up and down and seems mindless and unrewarding isn’t so, for people get on and off the elevator, it’s how treat them on the journey that matters. Love to you and the family my friend!
Thanks Gina..your kind thought and brilliant ideas helped us both get through it all…
This is touching and poignant and thought-provoking in quite an effortless way. The End. Another beginning. Zoe is part of that new beginning as she begins her new journey. I wish you all peace. 🙏🏼
Thanks Osyth…always a joy to see you here..
Wow oblivion is not the end it is just the beginning
And poetry and words like this provide support on that journey. Blessings to you all Mich.

Like this poem. There isn’t an end but a cycle. And even oblivion is something new an not the end.
Thanks Mandy..

Thank you Sheldon

Excellent poem… Makes me think that probably endings are not absolute… Maybe they are still new beginnings at the same time… 🙂
Yes Aqui..it could be…happy to see you here..
I can’t express how sad I am reading this. Brings out a lot of great memories at the sight of a word… forever…. Yes. Those great moments will forever be in my mind, in my heart… till my last breath
Oohhh thank you for your kind thoughts..
Loved that last line: ” forever/ is again, yet/ another word….”
Wonderful poem.
