Goodbye

Goodbye Daddy. I wish you didn't have to go. We were like peas in a pod. I still miss you so. Goodbye Mum. My solid friend. Encouraged me to end. My marraige. Goodbye my husband. I wish you well. Here's hoping you don't end up in hell. Goodbye my babies. One by one. You left the nest. Have fun. Goodbye Jeaniemac. You timid soul. Isn't it wonderful you've grown old? Hello the new you. Gosh, you're stong. From deep inside this poet was born.
