Wonderfully written write of a tragic tale of the loss of a child, loving the ending as it leaves the reader to work out what happened, enjoyed the read

You did well to convey the emotion of a dark situation that is not yours into a poem. Writing in the first person helps a lot and your poem took us for a ride. Using a child\'s premature death and a mother\'s grief also upped the ante. The ending being left as it was ambiguous as to whether the leaf was just a symbolic reminder, a spiritual sign or the last thing seen before driving into the tree ironically ending her life by a tree as well is masterful. Lack of resolution forces the readers mind to return again and again to solve the situation. Very well written and a fave
