YOU’RE THE GHOST

There’s a part of the grieving process,
where your soul kind of leaves your body too.
As though it’s off searching for the one you lost,
somewhere in the ether.

You walk around,
doing all the right things,
putting one foot in front of the other,
living,
but it’s really as though you’re the ghost.

Perhaps you are.
Perhaps your soul searches,
until you find the one you miss,
and they tell you to go back and live.

So, when that numbness passes brave one,
maybe it’s time to do what you are told,
go back and live,
twice as hard.

You don’t belong there in the ether,
nor do you need to search for the one you lost,
they find you.
And when they do, you’ll feel it.

What a fabulous day we had on Friday May 7th. Our first in person get together with our Roswell Stitch In at our house. Thank you to everyone that brought their projects for Show n Tell! Anya Gray brought a super beautiful quilt - Beatrix Potter Alphabet Letters stitched for her granddaughter. It was SOOOO nice to see everyone and get some much needed hugs and catch up with everyone.
