We all know that one of the amazing things about Huff is that he makes it look and sound much easier than it is. <br /><br />Issa is the best,<br /><br />DonIssa's Untidy Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352841590717991698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-16251943264106916422013-03-30T20:26:38.529-04:002013-03-30T20:26:38.529-04:00The expression "words cannot say" is pro...The expression "words cannot say" is proved false with this most moving poem.

Huff is an inspiration to me - both as a poet and, simply, more importantly, as a person.

Glad ...Rachael ... thanks so much for sharing this. Glad for the synchronicity of this, though so much sadness is involved. I think the poem illustrates what your sister is saying, though it is from the child's point of view, so to speak. There must be recognition and grieving and attempt to understand.

Only today my sister was talking about her son and his wife who lost one of their twins, while the other twin is still in an incubator but will probably survive. My sister was saying that it is most important to the parents that people acknowledge the baby who died, rather than just congratulating them on the baby who remains.<br /><br />Only had this conversation with her today, so quite uncanny and wonderful to find this moving poem here this evening.Rachael Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09890558579053212319noreply@blogger.com
