The Last Time

Today is the day where you and I gathered for the last time
Today's the day where I shall wave goodbye

I shed a tear as I hugged you tight
For I shall see you no more by my side

Your shadow was the last thing that disappeared
Before your scarf let go and came back to where you once belonged

Wistful and sad... lovely flow and sorrowful emotion. The image of the scarf is most effective. Well done Sara! Best wishes, Keith
