Thursday Morning

July 23

NO!

my cry echoes these empty walls

“This cannot be true!”

“This cannot be right!”

but

days later

you were there

where you should not have been

the shell of what you were

laid out

and I knew the truth

You are dead

and it is not right

but it will be well

I found out Thursday morning that my

friend Rob Greenwood had died suddenly.

He was a member of my men’s group.

He was a husband of thirteen months.

He was a good man who cared and was

not afraid to show his love for God.

He will be missed.
