Today’s form: Sonnet
Today’s Device: Apostrophe
I have struggled hard to write this sonnet since I saw the prompt. I find it very difficult to give up. This morning an email from a friend brought some sad news. I’m sorry I’m not writing this for pleasure of any kind, but something to show our friend we all understand what this loss means to him and us.
To My Friend!
Today our good friend’s world is in disarray.
His dearest son bid goodbye forever!
I don’t know how to comfort him today.
How can we humans deal with this ever!
He truly has been a good friend for long.
I feel lost to know he’s out there suffering.
I wish I could say, “don’t believe this it’s wrong,
He will come back to you happy smiling.”
Life puts us through so many hard exams.
It’s not easy when you are facing it.
So let’s pray my friend can make other plans,
Like spend time with his other kids and not quit.
Our children are special we know it’s true,
I hope none of us,will face this blow too!
