Ren,
Another thoughtful poem here that reminded me of your recent winner in its sentiment: Sometimes we just don't appreciate people and their efforts - in this case, until it is too late.
A great little piece of writing that got me thinking.
All the very best and I hope you are well,
Ben

Thank you so much for the comment, Ben!
It is really easy to take advantage of our loved ones and forget to appreciate what they do. It is always nice to tell people they are loved and appreciated, because you never know what life can throw at you.
Thanks again and take care!
-Ren

So true are your words, "little bit of sugar, little bit of spice."

I miss my dear ones too.
