The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

So sorry to hear that River, death is never easy for those who die or those left behind. Hugs from Perth (hoping that may help in just the smallest way) xxx
ReplyDeleteThat seemed quick. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your friend. I hope there are happy memories you can treasure.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you.
Hard times indeed. Thinking of you over here in Canada.
ReplyDeleteKakka; thank you.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; she'd been ill a long time, she began struggling to breathe on Saturday, she is at peace now.
Red Nomad; Thank You, I do have memories.
Delores; the next week will be the hardest of all I think, for the immediate family.
Hi River,
ReplyDeleteHope you are OK. I've lost somebody close before so I know exactly how it feels.
PM
Like all your friends, thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteOh River, I'm so sorry for you and your family. The fact of it being her birthday seems ironic but also rather fitting .... new life in some form or other?
ReplyDeleteI then scrolled down to Sunday Selections and urge you to do the same again. Your photographs there are beautiful and very appropriate for how you're no doubt feeling right now.
Hugs to you, dear friend. K xo
Another hug from Canada. XX (So sorry, River.)
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear this. Losing people we love is never easy. Gentle hugs
ReplyDeleteRiver,
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can do something like planting a rose in memory of your friend?
I always find ritual comforting.
My condolences. Hug
I'm very sorry to hear your sad news, River, and am thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteBig cuddles to you x
ReplyDeleteSad news, sorry to hear of your loss and your pain River
ReplyDeletePlasman; I'm okay. The first shock is over and this was expected for a while now.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; thank you.
Kath Lockett; Thank you. The hard week is ahead for the immediate family, with funeral arrangements etc. The roses seem appropriate, bare branches waiting for new growth.
CarrieBoo; thank you.
pesky pixies; thank you. This particular woman will be very much missed.
drb; I'll find out what her favourite flower was, there are so many roses here already. Planting something for her would be lovely.
Fruit Cake; thank you.
Fenstar de Luxe; thank you.
Tempo; thank you, the first pain has eased, but there will be many more tears at the funeral.
I'm so sorry for the loss of somebody dear to you.
ReplyDeleteSO sad to read this, for you and for the people who were looking forward to celebrating her birthday with her.
ReplyDeleteSarah; it's been hard for her immediate family, watching her fade away.
ReplyDeleteHappy Elf Mom; I don't think they'd planned a birthday celebration, A has been too ill for several months.
I am so sorry. For you and for everyone who loved her.
