sciifly shared a letter in the
Remembering those we lost/Grief group 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Pipita
Rest in Peace Pipita
Like a precious bottle of Malbec~ from the vineyards of Argentina Vintage 1928.
Her hair is stunning red, roots deep brown with traces of white.
The lines on her face emphasized the years of laughter and tears. So many stories of the old Argentine neighborhood she speaks about~ I see these stories in her lines.
Her expressions are truth.Her hands remind me of an atlas map
Tracing veins like blue rivers with finely detailed “lunars” (known in English as beauty marks) properly positioned.
The jewelry she is adorned in brightly shines
Even after so many years without polish
Her gentle smile reminds me of her youth and vibrancy“I am not afraid” she recited to me once “When God calls for me, I will answer”
Her spirit makes life worth living.
Looking forward to old age.
With my heart and soul, I am a reflection of her.She is my GRAND-Mother.
Bendicion~ 🙏

I really admire the comparison between nature and your grandmother. By reading your poem I can feel that your grandmother was truly rooted and connected to her spiritual being! She is shining over you everyday, proud of how you are writing beautiful poetry about her presence on Earth. Thank you for your inspiration for others who are going through the journey of grief losing their loved ones.
