Where my tears once heavy
are now weightless
it must be because
iv’e shared such grief
in a world that’s
filled with much of its own
i’m now able to walk
when forever before
I was just dragging my feet
on the cobbles of life
almost as if
they were made of stone.

It must be a huge relief to feel some of that heaviness lifting. Grief can certainly weigh you down. This is a beautiful composition Teddy, so well crafted and your posted image looks divine. Have a happy Wednesday dear poet. ๐น
Thank you my dear Cassie, grief as I have learned many times now is a long heavy road yet sharing with all of my poetry friends such as you, has opened me to peace and tranquility thank you. ๐น
Beautifully stated in poetic style a feeling of relief. Lifted from the darkness of past pain to a higher plain. Liberating and lifting a ray of sunlight. Such nice images.
Thank you so much dear sorrenbarret. ๐น
To know that grief is as much a part of life as happiness, Teddy and be able to acknowledge it means you have found liberation and strength.
(Sounds a bit preachy - sorry!)
My dear Dave, it sounds very kind of you that's how it sounds. (wink) I shan't tell a soul. ๐นthank you.
Like they say, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. And yes, much you have been through, but Teddy, I believe you to be the strongest woman alive. Very well penned. ๐๐
Oh I doubt I'm the strongest alive but thanks for the kind words dear A.P ๐น I still haven't managed to find the photo of Sharon, maybe just send it to my private message id truly love to see it. ๐น
Its in my poem "Many a Man" at the very beginning of my pages. But I can try to send it there too.
Wow, loved this one, both your poetry and the image (Did you create it?). I shall save this one in my Favs. Thanks for sharing. - Phil A.
Dear Phil, I'm always honoured when you come by to say how much you enjoyed my writing. I create the words but not the art, although easy to find on the internet, I'm not sure if it's Google Europe that allows me such amazing choice but I always try to use the art to the best of my ability I do however have many photos that I've taken like this one. Thank you Sir I'm humbled by your kind words. ๐น
Keep walking to your wonderful life that is there for you Teddy.
Andy
Thank you dear Andy. I will ๐น
The human spirit endures grief and at the same time has the capacity to restore and make whole again. Your poem speaks volumes to this wonder. Beautifully written from the heart!
Thank you so much dear Bella. ๐น
It surely would be a blessing for letting go, but still in process of being weigh down though. Serene words dearest teddy.
