Ronald Bingham Poet Narrative

Saying Goodbye

We must learn to say goodbye.
   Even when we don’t know why.
Does this mean we should not get close.
   Don’t let goodbyes be such a bitter dose.
Be glad you had a chance to share.
   The warmth of their friendship while they were there.
They too must feel this gnawing pain.
    That leaves you emotionally and mentally drained.
Be happy and pray they prosper well.
    And hope they have good tales to tell.
Life doesn’t end for them nor you.
    It just means you both have new things to do.
Caress the memories that were made.
    Never let good times or there good memories ever fade.
Always hold your head up and be proud.
    That such fond memories God has allowed.
So embrace goodbyes as part of life. 
    Never too burden or cause you strife.
So goodbye to you my dear sweet friend.
    This is only the beginning it’s not the end.
