Remembering dad

Had a bit of a setback last few days. Elderly dad died a few years ago but in clearing out I’ve found a folder of paintings he made at an art class he undertook to manage his pain. Very amateur but I recognise objects, scenes, people and pets in them. I managed to let most of them go - kept a handful- but they took me right back into his last years of suffering and striving for fulfillment to the last. And the last of his clothes- found some drill bits, a wrapped sweet and a clean hanky in his jacket pocket. Like he’s just popped out. A sad difficult day for me today.
