Death


It seems like a heavy topic . however today a friend of mines Father died after a battle with Cancer.
Instead of blogging i thought it appropriate to use this space to offer my condolences and best wishes to her father.
Tradegies like this make me so angry that stuff like this has to happen.
Makes me question why a family would be torn apart like that and how it''s undeserved.
But i guess i'm not the one making the rules around here.


Immediatly the situation made me think of derek walcotts poem the young wife and the final two stanzas

'The children close in the space
made by a chair removed,
and nothing takes her place
loved and now deeper loved.

The children accept your answers
they starle you when they laugh
She sits there smiling that cancer
Kills everything but love.'
