Comment from Fleedleflump
You have maintained a lapping, consistent rhythm throughout this piece that helps promote senses both of sadness and serenity. I love the floating, almost dreamlike essence of your language as you observe and interpret natural phenomena with poetic grace and fluid tongue. I think this is a brilliantly written poem.

Very well written and fantastic flow and ease of reading.

Hello dear jimi...
This is a beautiful and touching memory of your mom and grandmom. I do not have mine either, and at times like these we may feel the loss even more than at other times. BTW...congratulations on winning a dark club crown.
Fondly, Rebecca

Comment from Judian James
How lovely this is Jimi. Both your mom and grandmom are remembered here with such love through your elegant and eloquent words. Really lovely.
"Again the fragrant draft swirled in brisk swift dance
Then a mutter so faint, I rose to seek its place,
and for an instant I thought I caught a glance
of your simple, spirited, sweet, loving face" Bravo!

Comment from Aussie
Glorious presentation and rememberance of your grandmother and mother. Lavender is well associated with age (amongst other things) a great soother and healer. We burn it in oil for the mozzies!Two most important woman in our lives and we do grieve heartily. They are only a step away from us. Given time the family will be re-united in life with the Lord. Well done Jimi!

Comment from chita
You have great artwork and a good flow with your poem and rhyme well-you are descriptive and write with emotion about the passing of your grandmother and mother-your poem reads with a calmness as if you were careful with each word you wrote-I love where you write(In solemn thought, I hear the breath of God's breeze) this is a powerful statement and one that will carry you through any storm--great job.

Comment from Bellringer
Jimi, you poem is a beautiful picture of how God is present in our grief. You provide brilliant scenes of nature as it participates in the effort to lend comfort--in answer to your prayers. Excellent use of lavender's fragrance to precede the vision of a loved one's face. Blessings, Hector

jlsavell, it is nice to think we hear them in the quietness
of nature speaking to us and telling us all is well. I loved
this tender piece about seeking comfort and missing your mother and grandmother.
