A tribute to Maureen as she battles her demons of diseases.
Stay stalwart and remain positive as for each candle that burns brings healing waters to atone for all the despair and heartache you have had to endure.
Lovely alliteration: despair dwells deep in dark

This octogram form is catchy. 8-4-8-4-8-8-8-4. ABABCCBB. Might try it sometime. Runs on like the witch's spell in "MacBeth." "Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble..." "For while dispair dwells deep in dark..." See how they go together? Best line: "hope lives within the slightest spark."

Your poem in tribute to this wonderful poet and friend is so excellent and fits her.
You captured both sides, the light and the dark, and the candle lights our path to understanding.
Excellent.

These is just so beautiful, Brooke. I am so amazed once again how a poem can pierce through me like this one has. Ever since childhood, certain poems we read and memorized in school, would have a special effect on me. This is sooo goooodddd! Drew!

Brooke, this is a refreshingly different write that utilizes unusual meter. I liked it. The a b a b rhyme is engaging. Great sentiments. :0 GracieAnn

There comes a time when everyone has to let her go and decide if it's her time or not. We still hope but give her the freedom she needs.
Well done, Buck
