Emotions of loss
Emptiness, sadness hollow like eggs
Siblings once close, now far from near
Orphaned by nature, like a hurricane it hit
News like a howling wind
Destruction its path
Sympathy and condolences
Its what every one expects
Ears shut down, I don't want to hear
Child have faith she's watching from above
Words of comfort, yet how do they know?
Is there a ladder to heaven for adults alone
Mother if there is then please climb down
Like jack and the bean stalk
We will then cut it down
