This is evokes so many of my senses while being so clever, placing a beautiful word like blossom next to loss, and describing non-existent being as a phantom limb. I never would have thought to think about phantom limb in such a context. You've given quite a few notes for how I'll write about loss in future works. Very good.
oh,Crystal, beautiful sonnet. I can so relate. Sue Oringel
"Fleet as the scent of mock orange on the wind,
you are a blossom of loss, phantom limb."
