FADING INTO HISTORY

Yes how sad, how sad, there are, as the woman next door, not the doors next door, but the balcony next door, and in flats where there are hundreds of people one cannot know them all, and we hadn't been here that long when we heard that she had died, alone in her flat, no relatives and had been there for over a fortnight, that was sad to learn, I made sure that the next woman who, also alone, had someone to talk with and visited her several times before she too went into a home and died, she had family who only occasionally visited her, but I still felt awful about the other old lady! She was one such lost 'soul' poor soul, and they don't tell one or try to meet people they accept their 'lot' and what is that, I wonder what that is? So sad you make me feel, I sigh a big sigh for those in this situation, wow. So nicely worded by a compassionate 'soul', Annuccia

Thats twice this week you had left me speachless, again another poignantly sad write ... brilliantly sad to be honest but someone has to speak for them ... and you do it with eloquence love and hugs Jayne x x x

Dearest Longo, I think it is Arrow who belongs to a group whose motto is that no one should die alone. Forgive me if I am incorrect in that. After all is said and done, I am sure we as poets, are here to give voices to the countless who have no voice, who have fallen still and unremembered. Thank you for adding yours.

So sad. You are on a roll though, this is really good. Love Lyz. Xx
