So, Jackie, was he hiking alone and died on the trek?  I like the way you 
make the child seem so vivid.  And the desolate description of his remains 
is an apt description, too of how our hearts feel.  How old was he?

Brad,
I tried this a while ago, and I think the wrong file got attached. Tried to
remove or stop. Not quite sure what happened. I'll try again.
Death in the Desert is the poem I wrote after my son's remains were found.
Your sensitivity is appreciated and I know you come by it honestly having a
brother who died.
And, Yes, Barbara, 80% of marriages fall apart after the loss of a child.
Mine did, after 26 years.
Poetry is a healing craft and helps all of us who write it to get through
anything, and the silver lining is somehow to start seeing the humorous side
of many things.
Jackie

Jackie and others with a similar loss,

I watched the suffering my parents went through
with the loss of my brother. I never want to find
out, but the professionals in the world say there
is no greater greif than the loss of a child.
