    Hello Ren

    Another great piece from you here ; truly moving and emotional to read. I would comment more fully but I'm on a bloody tablet and I hate them!

    All the very best and I hope you are well,
    Ben

    Ren, this has reduced me to tears. I'm sorry for your loss. I won't tell you my life story but I lost a child 5 years ago due to domestic violence and I still grieve today. I feel it's harder to get over someone you never met than someone you met though I don't know why.

    Beautiful, heartfelt piece. Em

      Thank you so much Em!
      I appreciate you taking the time to read this and comment.
      When I read your beautiful tribute to your son, it reminded me so much of our Tiny Dancer. Although I cannot even begin to imagine the hell you went through in your situation, I do understand how hard it can be to lose something so small, innocent, and precious.
      I do hope you continue to heal. Our sweet angels are together and looking down on us :)
      Much love to you, Em.

    Ren,

    This poem was so sad yet so beautiful. My heart breaks for all of you. You usually try to not think about those losses and when you do it seems as though your world is falling apart. I'm so glad your niece is living on for the both of them and the Tiny Dancer lives within her. :)

    Awe...so sweet...so sad...so beautiful.
    Tiny Dancer - that's really cute.
    Twins are definately a gift...your Tiny Dancer is no more but her sister lives to bring smiles to everyone's lives ahead.
    Very heartfelt and a captivating write.
    Beautifully done.

      Losing our Tiny Dancer was tragic and absolutely heartbreaking...but we are so grateful her sister made it through and can live on for the both of them. My niece is my whole world...and I know Tiny Dancer is looking out for her sister, every single day as she continues to grow :)
      Thank you so much once again for reading and your lovely comment!

    This first caught me because of the tittle. It's one of very few Elton John songs I like.

    Anyway. Pulled in ! Such an amazing write full of sadness and loss but at the same time it holds so much joy.

    Such a pleasure to read on a dark day.

    Regards

      Tiny Dancer is one of my favorite songs :) and one of the reasons why we called her that. Thank you so much for reading and for your kind words, Craig. They are much appreciated.
