loved someone I lost

smiled at my children

coaxed a child to smile

or try again

watched the sun set

always promising tomorrow

felt god hold me always

even when I fell so far

there was no sky

Shake me gently
do not let me slumber

forget life

love

love of life

and of life's loves

Let me care
cry

smile

Great Article

Kathlyn Stone did a great job reviewing this beautiful book of poetry by Jeff McCallum. Jeff is an accomplished poet writing about an all too common experience. His writing stirs emotions that are often too hard to handle unless they are bound in words or images. His poetry does both and so gives voice to feelings so many have experienced but may not have been able to express or share. Stone's review got to the heart of this. Well done.
