Excellent Eight long years she's been gone My darling waits. by Willie P. Smith Sad Poems writing prompt entry

April twentieth, twenty fifteen, my love was called away My children and I will visit mama on that day. She lies in a beautiful place In her favorite dress With white lace. Two dates adorn her stone, When she came And when she went home. I've reserved a place  Right next to my love For when my Lord calls me above. Oh, what a day That will be, Where my darling Waits for me.   Writing Prompt Sadness has overcome us all at one time or another. Either caused by a relative or close friend's death or from the girl or guy that broke our heart or just life in general. We all handle situations differently, some good, some bad. This contest gives us the ability to explore this. Your poem can also play into other emotions that are common to writing like this such as anger or depression. Author Notes As you have probably noticed, many of my poems are directed toward my wife. This is because those were the best days of my life.
