Sad, premature death., The years do not dim the sorrow. You can hear it in this poem it bleeds through. Nicely worded.

A fine write of a terrible disease of olden days - mainly?
Meanwhile - I been looking up KP\'s Album. Her ancestors are in \'The Encyclopedia of Trouts - Old Ones!\' heehee.
Does she know the book \'1,001 Joys of Botox\'? Know it? She wrote it!

Crikey .. I had an aunt Winnie my paternal grandfathers sister who succumbed more recently than your great aunt but to the very same thing .. Much later,
I worked in what was the old sanitorium where she once used to convalesce .. .. a sad poem Cassie and one which records part of almost every existing households familial history .. I am glad you penned this my friend, your great aunt deserves to be remembered in a poem of such quality ..

Wow! I am honored to be the first to like, favorite and comment. This is beautiful, Cassie. So sorry to hear of your Aunty Winnie. Such a young age and that disease is a killer! My great-grandparents died young from the Flu, back during the 1918-1919 epidemic that killed so many people. It\'s amazing how delicately fragile life is and yet how, even having died at a young age, this woman left behind such a legacy, one that your poem breathes new life into. Glad to hear her features came through in your graddaughter. What a blessing! 🌹👏🙏❤️

sad but true that addiction leads not only destruction of one\'s own life, but also affects those near and dear.
you have brought this out so poignantly and clearly.

Wind chime music can be beautiful and satisfying. I unfortunately live too close to others to allow me the indulgence of ownership. Your piece gave me much vicarious pleasure though, Cassie – thanks.

This one drew a fuck from me Cassie .. I know the pain you refer to and I also know that you know no-one sets out or chooses to become addicted to anything, but once hooked, it is so much easier to stay hooked than it is to scramble free .. and even knowing that don\'t help none. 💜
