Michael J. Falotico Poet Rhyme

Sad Goodbye

by Michael J Falotico

                                               Two lips once connected..
                                                 Hands now have let go..
                                              Voices no longer dissected..
                                                 Now an email to speak..
                                         Pen Pals for a time but now too weak..
                                             Worlds apart, where to hide..
                                                Just another sad goodbye..

Wilma Neels May 22, 2011 at 2:17 PM Been there, somehow the most difficult thing to do is say goodbye.. Love your reflective write Mr. F.. Love Wilma

Andrea Dietrich May 22, 2011 at 12:25 AM Yes, it's what happens with long distance. My son is still living apart from his new wife. They are still waiting for permission for her to take her kids out of state! I enjoyed this one, Michael.

Carrie Richards May 21, 2011 at 2:47 PM It happens, what seems like a true connection....and then for whatever reason, fades. I too ponder, and it seems to be a sadness that grips most of us some time or another. Yes...this one, most of us will relate. So well expressed in this touching poem.

Jack Horne May 21, 2011 at 12:56 PM Yes, as you said, our poems are very similar in theme, Michael. Lovely write, my friend

Carolyn Devonshire May 21, 2011 at 12:12 PM Michael, I saw your comment on Jack Horne's poem and agree. You were on the same wavelength today. Jack is also happily married like you, so his write was based on memories. I'm sure he'll be reading your poem soon. Love, Carolyn

Linda-Marie Sweetheart May 21, 2011 at 10:59 AM so hard to keep in touch with all those who affected our lives in some way Michael.. the extension of your magnificent words tell the tale of this situation.. well these are lovely lines.. deep and intense as u my friend.. my W.K. as your Jersey Girl is being spoiled and pampered and oh the flowers that just arrived.. too awesome to describe.. I think I shall keep this Ron a bit..haha..

Carolyn Devonshire May 21, 2011 at 10:28 AM I saw your comment below and am glad this write is based on memories, Michael. People do drift apart gradually sometimes. When the emails end, sometimes we don't notice at first. After a while, though, we start wondering how the distance grew. Very touching poem, my friend. Love, Carolyn
