Absent Friends

A bunch of flowers marks The final resting place Of earthly endeavours exit From the human race To freely fly from body Unto another plane To never struggle for a breath Nor run for cover in the rain So it is with my dear companions Departed from me here Enjoying their spiritual youth While I remain to shed a tear They are gone but not forgotten As they share my mind each day Many happy recollections Makes my sadness go away

A beautiful poem Andy. It is always nice to to remember those that have gone before us. I know - I have lost many family members and also friends. Thanks for sharing... Lucilla
