Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Eight long years she's been gone

My darling waits.

by Willie P. Smith

April twentieth, twenty fifteen,
my love was called away
My children and I
will visit mama on that day.
She lies in a beautiful place
In her favorite dress
With white lace.
Two dates adorn her stone,
When she came
And when she went home.
I've reserved a place 
Right next to my love
For when my Lord
calls me above.
Oh, what a day
That will be,
Where my darling
Waits for me.

Sad Poems writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
Sadness has overcome us all at one time or another. Either caused by a relative or close friend's death or from the girl or guy that broke our heart or just life in general. We all handle situations differently, some good, some bad. This contest gives us the ability to explore this. Your poem can also play into other emotions that are common to writing like this such as anger or depression.


As you have probably noticed, many of my poems are directed toward my wife.
This is because those were the best days of my life.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
