This is a nicely written note. The matting made my eyes bug out. Why did you choose bright yellow? A beige or soft gray would have made your poetry more calming. My opinion only. Good writing. Karen

    I fear the yellow will put people off. Karen

So true. We do think about those loved ones who've passed on. In my case, I think of them every day. Your poem relates how they visit us in our dreams, and that's so true. Those thoughts of departed loved ones remind me of happy times we had at family gatherings and vacations. Beautifully expressed. judi

This poem is reassuring and inspiring. It lets me know it's okay to think of my mother who passed away thirty years ago, and my sister who left me months ago. Your well-chosen words brings peace and serenity. Your artwork pairs perfectly and intensifies the message of your poem.
