PHOTO PROMPT © Liz Young |
My eyes open when the first rays of the sun dance upon dewy
grass. I am in the kitchen, the kettle
whistling on the stove as I brew us a pot.
I step outside and
place the tray on the table. Our day
starts with freshly brewed tea, a milk jug, a bowl of sugar, two cups and plate
of biscuits.
I hear you shuffling slowly, your glasses dangling on the
end of your short nose and the rustling of the paper in your hand.
You’ve been gone for a year now and yet you remain in my
heart.
This week marked my brother-in-law's first death anniversary. The photo was a strange coincidence but I knew I had to write about love and remembrance this week. Gone but not forgotten. To read the other writers this week click here.
