April Ribbons

A large black ribbon, drapped in front of the Catholic church front door, evoked from me a sense of awe, a profound and humble reverence.

A tiny red ribbon, shaped into a tiny bow to wear on my lapel during Scott's memorial, provided for me a kind of catharsis by giving my sadness expression.

A large white and gold ribbon, drapped in front of the Catholic church front door, conjured up in me a deep-seated happiness, life goes on.
