Her husband died twenty years ago.
She’s never gotten over her grief.
She is seventy now and alone.
They never had any children.
She believes his spirit is with her
and watches over in the afterlife.
She has imaginary conversations
with him in her mind everyday.
Some people might think
the loss made her delusional,
but I think she’s probably right
in believing her husband still
watches over her and hears
everything she says to him.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
