together in line

unrelenting sadness lingers

hope slips through her outstretched fingers

no pill can tend a grief like this

and words well meant their target miss

with soulful eyes replete with tears

she sinks beneath a sea of fears

together though, we stand in line

her breaking heart now breaking mine.

Nothing particularly interesting to say other than I'm a GP with an interest in emotional well-being, an avid Somerset County Cricket Club supporter and a poor example of a Christian who likes to put finger to keyboard from time to time and who is foolish enough to think that someone out there may be interested enough to read what I've written. Some of these blogs have grown over time and some portions of earlier blogs reappear in slightly different forms in later blogs. Apologies for the repetition. What I have posted today (6th August 2018) consists of what I have written over the last few years - whether I write anything ever again, only time will tell.
