Goodbye

Water leaking from my eye The time has come to say goodbye Thirty-five years you smiled so bright God called you home for eternal life Compassion and the love that you share Beyond what most could begin to compare You left behind family and friends But your memory is one to never end

Dearest Kenneth. A wonderfully constructed poem. I recall my Mom’s passing. She lived tobe 88, but the saddestfumral was the death of s ome year old. Myhusband died at age 40. I could not believe that! Do remember your one who is now with God. I will be prayimg for peace for you, dear Kenneth, Gracias, Pangie
