Clare, this is lovely and heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing your beautiful words here. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Lovely, Clare.
Thank you all so much and to Literary Mama for publishing this poem. I come back to it from time to time. My son, the inspiration for this poem, is always on my mind. He died in 2004.
