Jim, Very nice sunset photo and use of the prompt. I actually wrote two works and could not decide which to post. My second piece is along your exacting theme, called "A Simple Good-bye". Thank you for your kind comments on my post and blog.
very elegant, Jim. Interesting factoid -- in Judaism there are no flowers at funerals. Lot's of flowers for the living and the sick, but none at funerals.
Jimmie Hov, very succint, but I just read your comment on another blog about your grandmother and it made me so sad! How did a chiroprator kill her? I so loved my own Nana. It is so hard to miss them sometimes but what fond memories I have. It sounds like you do too and I am so sorry for your loss!
