Five little angels stood in a line
Shaking their heads when I said, I’m fine
Four little angels said you need time to heal
Trust in us, we know how you feel
Three little angels said we are always near
Watching over you, we see your tears
Two little angels stroked my head
Leading me back towards my bed
One little angel said your mum is safe
Then kissed me gently on my face.
🌹
I see the angels are back. I know – they never left !

Beautiful and so true Elaine. I remember our doctor’s surgery sending me a condolence letter accompanied by a booklet about bereavement. I found the information very useful especially the part that mentioned periods of insomnia and lack of patience at times.
Take care Elaine and be kind to yourself. I am only really starting the being kind to myself bit now 3 years on but as we know everyone’s process is different.

Ok, not knowing your ‘early hours story’ wondered if it was bereavement related.
I often have periods of inspiration when in theory I should be sleeping.

It was a strange one Margaret, my awake story is often due to health related issues , but then I saw a painting that touched me somehow and it brought up a lot of emotions which obviously brought my mum to my mind. I wanted to write some deep poetry but I can’t at the moment because everything is so raw. Mum house has now got a new occupants and that touched a nerve. I hope it makes them as happy as it made my mum and they continue to look after her beautiful gardens. 😢
