@jdawson59 Where Have You Gone?

I am so sorry to read of your loss, my friend.

There is so much I want to write about your piece and I find myself unable to express the emotions it has brought to the surface. You have written a legacy -- a memorial to a life lived, loved and shared. Beautiful!!

I lost a sister in 2001, a sister in 2002 and my mother in 2003 -- all to cancer. Would that we could find a cure for this monster.

Thank you, jdawson59, for this touching and, at times, overwhelming work. I am grateful to you for being to express my feelings with your beautiful words.

Thank you...

Time I

Words only carry the message and, if the message can be conveyed in a few words, even more so is the power they deliver. Time I delivered on that thought -- succinct yet, rich in its meaning; short yet, powerfully long in its message.

This is a wonderfully written and very meaningful piece.

Time II

If life can ever be summed up in three short stanzas then you have done so in this beautifully written piece. I am so impressed with your writting style, Geoff. It makes me want to dig deep within myself and pull out those thoughts, desires and actions I keep hidden away -- sometimes even from myself.

You're an inspiration, Geoff. Thank you for sharing yourself and your exquisite work.


Regards,
