Prompt: Have fun with these words in your entry today: adjourn, churn, burn, turn, yearn and fern.

---

The meeting of the sheep on the farm was adjourned until further notice for the milk needed churning to turn it into butter, although this action burned the palms of the farmer whom the sheep loved dearly. The sheep, then, disbanded over the field, bypassing the soured fern growing on the sides of the property. The early spring shoots of grass they yearned for had toughened and yellowed under the hot summer sun. Still they chumped on whatever they could find. Their next meeting would have to be held inside the barn due to this scorching heat.

Prompt: From HollyMerry ’s "My little friend a poem about loss. How do you deal with loss?

---

The poem points to the pain the poet feels from the loss of her kitten. Truly, a pet’s death shakes up a person. It is not only the loss but the mourning for what might have been, had the death never happened.

Loss leaves behind in its wake pain and emotional suffering, often extremely overwhelming. This bouts of pain and suffering are normal. The more significant the loss, the stronger the pain. This pain takes time.

It is a good idea to understand one’s own pain in order to be able to deal with it. It is also important to let time do some healing, too.

How do I deal with loss? With keeping to a to-do list every day and adding a lot of prayer to it, as I am still dealing with such pain although it has been more than a year that I lost the most important person in my life, which hurts more, I think, than the loss of a pet.

I cannot really tell anyone how to feel or go through the mourning process because we’re all different, since the way I am --the way I can still manage the daily routine, work, and deal with whatever comes up-- shocks and surprises me all the time. I think I am stronger than I have ever given myself credit for.

It’s said that the emotional symptoms of grief from loss are shock and disbelief, sadness, guilt, anger, and fear. Usually, they don’t follow a sequence but they get all mixed up. If the dealing of everyday life becomes too much to handle, it is a good idea to seek help, but that help has to fit the person suffering; otherwise, it may be more hurtful than helpful.
