Nothing is impossible

When you set out to achieve

If consistency and focus

In your performance, you weave.

The Heart ... It's Culpable!

 I post this poem in solidarity with all who have lost a deeply-loved someone, irrespective of the relationship and the reason for the loss.

I hope this poem encourages kindness, compassion, understanding and empathy towards those of us who are living without a much loved someone. 

Today is Day 8 and the last day of the poetry challenge that I was nominated to, by Poet Jyoti Thatte. Thank You Jyoti.
