What a powerful piece! I'm torn between my appreciation for the way the story was told and the sadness brought on by the contents. This is the essence of what poetry is to me. Great write.

Thank you for your comment.
I didn’t quite realize how all of these poems worked together to create a story when I posted them, but after reading some of the comments they received, I can see the arc they create.
I intended only to capture small scenes, thoughts, and feelings from each day over a two week period. This time period just happened to include the passing of my grandmother and a somewhat scary illness that my son had.
