The sum of all grief
arrives at the end
of a life
The sum of all
deaths
Siblings,husbands, friends
children
The sum of all
faculties lost
Hearing, eyesight, balance,
cognitive thinking
The sum of all hope
for recognition, inclusiveness,
new love, empathy
The sum of all pain
physical, emotional, visual
The sum of all desires
a lifetime of them
met and unmet
These and more
always present in
her mind
The sums of a lifetime
the sum of all grief

We should pack away some good moments and memories for the time of evaluation- to deduct a little from that inevitable sum of grief....
