Christopher Flaherty Poet Free verse

5 Week's Later Sadly

Like I said right before 
you came
5 week's would come
and go

One day we would be happily patiently 
eagerly awaiting your arrival
And seemingly the very next day 
driving you back and waving you 
a sad farewell and goodbye 

But id rather that as much as it may sting 
Better that than having you never have 
came at all

And at least you have a loving family 
awaiting your arrival on the other side
So thanking you my Sister Joanne from
the piece missing from my heart
For coming in the 1st place as that 
was solely down to you

And as a parting gift please I pray you
 know this if nothing else beside 
You are the middle center ground truly 
blessed to be loved on either side of 
the equator in equal increasing amounts
both true north and due south

And let me finish by saying merely this 
You haven't even barely left no time
has in fact elapsed

But already you are sorely missed
