Without a Sigh Goodbye

Last race, fast pace. Too fast, can't last. Save breath, postpone death, Can't walk or talk. Race is over; count the cost. Some are winners, others lost. I know as time goes by, That someone more incredible than you or I Know when and how we will die. And the race will be over without a sigh. Goodbye

Shirley, Count the moments made, cherished. Not easy saying goodbyes. Watching others catch jet planes. -Richard
