No Goodbyes

No Goodbyes Morning rays lightly kiss my face, Revealing tears; my happiness replaced. I hold you for the last time in my embrace. Memories take refuge in my mind; Projecting days of happier times, Back to forgotten places, so sublime. Family and friends gather to see you, The fragrant rose, a beautiful view, Summoning joy for all that you knew. But angels cannot reside forever on earth, For they are meant for the heavens since birth, Leaving nothing but joy with all of it's worth. No goodbyes will be given by me, For together once more we will be, Recapturing the wonder and awe of she. For time nor death our bond could never rend, As grief fills my soul as your body descends. I know, I will see you again my most dearest friend.

Thank you :) This was actually written for my children. They have had medical problems and it frustrated me. But then I thought, God must have known. Thanks for the comment :)
