Article for Bereavement available to read : ‘Reflecting on the Fullness of a Hidden Life’



We are pleased to share the new article on Bereavement, recently published in the Faith Companion, which includes poems and prayers. It focuses on the funeral and how to include those not able to attend in person.

We hope it inspires and brings comfot.

“ Death has a strange impact

You cannot quite conceive of a future without your beloved.

You struggle to think.

Feelings overwhelm you

Completely unbidden.

You slip in and out of past memories,

Trying to process that final moment

Which will not leave your mind

Yet keeps you caught in the greatest grief.

Nothing has changed,

Except for the loss,

Yet everything is different.

The energy has an odd feel.

Time seems to slow.

And all you can see is your love,

Everywhere, yet nowhere,

Trying to cling on to them

Yet needing to move on,

For you are still alive

And they have gone to a lighter place

Still near

Yet lost from view..”
