Excellent We try to remain strong. Grief by Jodi Ann Anderson 5-7-5 Poetry Contest contest entry Artwork by seshadri_sreenivasan at FanArtReview.com

Sorrowed tears will fall,   Far beneath a hidden veil,   Death's secret remains. Author Notes Our dog died December 7, which prompted this poem. You show emotion at first, but then try to appear strong, even when you’re not. Most times, moments like this remain untold.
