great use of the traditional sonnet format to write this heart-felt heart-warming elegy poem for Nomi in his hour of need as he deals with the lost of his wife of 51 years.

This piece breaks my heart--for this man! It's gut-wrenching and tear-provoking. I'm sorry for your loss, Nomi. Thank you, Jessica, for sharing this beautifully crafted piece.
God bless,
Steve

Your poem, as so many others, has offered strength, comfort and love to Nomi in his time of grief and I know that he feels the caring as everyone wraps their arms around him. You did an excellent job and I know it will be appreciated.

Nomi is a special person to me. We've been friends for a few years now. I know he feels the prayers that Fanstory member have lifted up for him and his family. God's comfort is there. I also know he'll cherish this poem.

This sonnet, Rise, has the proper formatting and sends the words that will be accepted and used as he goes on without Yvonne. This separation is rough as we can all assume.

A beautiful and comforting poem, Jessica. It is a tender and comforting message delivered with the skill of a poet. I'm sure it will be a great solace for him to fall back on and read when, like the man in the pictures, he just sits and wonders how he's going to make it alone.

Take care,
Rhonda
