Death Visits Again...

Shortly after writing the last post Aunt K passed away, after years of illness and suffering. Her children-she counted me as one- and I kept vigil as her shrivelled body lay on the cold floor as is the custom in our community. There was intermittent rain the following day when the last rites took place. It poured again as I waited for my train the day after. Was it Aunt K weeping?
