Thank Don, my friend. I started a memorial butterfly garden but had to regroup as I couldn't make up my mind how I wanted it arranged. As I sat on my deck last night, this awesome silhouette appeared with the moonlight, so I had to try to capture it. Maybe I don't need to do anything more for his memorial. Maybe it's done. It is so surreal.
Chris, Thank you my friend. This is the first time I have EVER sat down and just wrote the first thing that came to my mind. I didn't think about it, I just wrote what I felt. The words were so heavy on my my heart, I couldn't find a pen and paper quick enough. I know it may seem simple to those who read it, but to me it says so much. I felt so good about this one. That's what it's all about, isn't it? I will never forget the silhouette of the moon and the memorial. It was magnificent. I just cannot say enough about the reflection. I felt my son's presence unlike any other time before.
Steve, Thanks to you my warrior friend for stopping by. Your words means more than you know. I can't thank you enough for reminding me of how proud my son would be...you have made my day my friend. And yes, it is as real as it gets.
Liz, Your words mean so much. Like I told Chris, this is the first time EVER I have just gone with the words in my heart, just wrote them down. You have no idea what it means for someone else to feel what I am feeling as I write about my son. Thank you my friend.

Which is exactly why this is so amazingly good. That's the way it's done, you have to feel it, can't be made up. Simple? I think not. Tis definitely done, the midnight hour belongs to you and yours.
Oh Ruth, You are a precious friend. Thank you again for your support and continued friendship. Your words touched my heart. That was a magnificent night and I will never forget it. I can't wait for the next one.
This is something which couldn't be either grasped or described... only felt deep inside. Thank God that He/She created such thing as compassion - COM-passion - which allows us to truly reach each other. My heart is going out to you, dear Carol... and I fully agree with Chris here. It's beautiful!
Thank you so much Alkistis and Svetlana for your kind comments. I do not profess to be a writer, in fact, I am way out of my league here, but this write came from the bottom of my broken heart. How can you go wrong with that. Your comments mean so much. Thank you for stopping by.
Barbary, Thank you for your words, I believe butterflies are magical. I have always found comfort in the moon, especially when it's full. Can't explain it but it's true.
Carol,that is so beautiful, I am glad you were able to get the words out, and what a beautiful shot, sometimes it is the simple things that mean so much......it is such a touching, lovely piece and so much of your heart and soul I can feel in it, thank you for sharing, big hugs!!!!!!

Kerrell, Thank you for your time my friend.
Randall, You mean no tears???? Way to go my friend! Thanks for stopping by. I do hope you are doing OK.
It's simply beautiful, and I know it's from the heart of a warrior!
And never, for one minute, stop KNOWING, that boy is proud of his mother, and I am too. It's simply courageous, brave and real.
Thank you and take care.

Kelly, I feel connections in so many things, the moon, the stars, butterflies, I have to find things to keep me going.
And you've captured the moon's comfort in your poem.
love and hugs always...
Thank you for stopping by Vickey. This article and picture is very special to me.
Simple? No, heartfelt - yes. It's the pieces we can't write down fast enough which are always the best.
That image is totally awesome and surreal. Life is like that sometimes, but those are the moments that stay with us.
I agree with you Rose. This was one of the most surreal moments I have had in awhile. I am hoping for another one soon. I will never forget this one.
Beautiful Carol

Beautiful Carol!
Thank you Janet for stopping by. :)
I think you're right about not needing to do anything more. This may be considered "simple" by some, but it is absolutely beautiful.
Thank you Renda. I do appreciate your words my friend.
