This is a very sad story and the chilling end confirmed to me that it ended in death. I have one suggestion for your first line (as I wandered down (memory) lane. Love Dolly x

Nice poem, I enjoyed reading it. It has a sad feeling to it and I like the way you use the photo to heighten the melancholy which you explain at the end. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day.

Comment from June Sargent
You have written enough in this poignant piece to show the depth of the loss - and the cause. The rest is left up to our own conclusions - thus allowing the feelings to reach down deep into our hearts. How would we feel if the source of our strength was now in a pine box, and all we have are memories and a folded photograph?

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This is well-written and concise. I find myself traveling down, memory lane as well, where there is a place you and I can go, that houses the tears, and memories of long ago. There, we can cry and weep, over lost loves. As I fall to the ground, and memories abound, I pick myself up with hope for another lover around. The rhymes are intentional, my friend. It's just the way I roll.
The fifth and sixth-grade, teacher tried to get us all together. Love starts young, and with the help and guidance of teachers and other role models, we can relate and learn from our many mistakes. Eat from the fruit of plenty and have a nice day,
Jesse

Comment from lyenochka
This is a sad story but so eloquently told with your well metered verses of quatrains alternating with couplets. I like how the final line refers back to the first couplet but shows us the full grief after losing the loved one. Hope you do well in the contest!
