Moons & Musings

She came to see me on the day of her funeral. I was able to tell mum that she looked very pretty in the dress she was wearing. Bear in mind that I hadn't seen her for a while before she died, as she wasn't at home, nor did I see her body, or go to the funeral. My parents decided that I was too young for that. A...
