Best Parting Poems

My Parting Gifts…

Goodbye, my son, my only king.
You are my love, your name I sing. 
My wish was more to be with you,
to be with you, and see you through.
It is my fate to leave you now. 
My dread was this, to tell you how.
I’m...

I took you for your final walk
On that crisp and sunny day
The blanket round your 
shoulders
To keep the chill at bay

We didn't talk the way we 
should
I filled the gaps with platitudes
Those precious moments lost
To a pain that I eschewed 

I didn't want to let...

As the last sun sets
and life ebbs away,
ugly words and deeds
flash across his mind
and he feels ashamed.

Bitter tears flow
into the mire
of squandered time
he can't redeem.

His eyes dim
as he begs 
forgiveness.

God hears -
At last

Peace.

how i dream
sweet soul mate
of the moment
when i will join you 
~
when my work here
will be done
and i’ll have given
all that i could give

only then in peace
most willingly
i’ll leave all behind
to find my wings

over my shoulder
give but a quick glance
and with content heart
blow one final...

The Angels have come
to take me away
The only hug I can give
are the words I write today
In my shaking hand
They've placed a golden pen
So I ponder my past
my here now and then

What words of wisdom 
do I have to impart?
At this moment 
I wish to...

Like a cork bobbing, thrown about
upon the waves by frenzy spurred
my train of thought zoomed in and out,
I tried to focus: last words, slurred,
so near…so far…I swirled in doubt.

Waves shore-bound break in a calm jade translucence 
Our time together fades into tranquil eternal bliss

The Parting

Exodus 14

We stand sweating and thirsty by the shore
At the setting of Ra
A setting we’ve always anticipated
Bringing a glimpse of beauty to each day of toil
Beauty now eclipsed by a plumage of fire
Baking our scarred backs 
Reflected heat scorching past us 
To turn the...

I was with her at School,
but She got lost in a crowed.
I remained there at School,
With Tear drops on the ground.

Tararaah...Tararaah...
Rain drops on the ground.
In the rain I was standing like a Fool,
In the rain I was standing like a Mule!

My mind was telling me...

A parting shot

	  Baristas bang to level the grounds
	  Constant caffeinated sounds
	  Murmured speak of 'where to next'?
	  Lonely figures sit and text
	  Gluten-free on plates piled high
	  Condensing people passing by
	  Foreign tongues that click and slur
	...

The time has come for me to say goodbye forever
I am not brilliant at expressing my emotions
But in the words of ‘Sealion Dion’ ….
‘I will always love you’

If you check in the filing cabinet
You will find my portfolio of shares
I have kept the Woolworth's certificate...

I can't copy and paste a quote and begin writing.  My heart won't allow my pen to move. My soul says Lou that ain't you. Talk about anything, everything, about scriptures written in red, nothing at all, just let it be you, about you,...

I’ve never played a hole in one,
that doesn’t worry me.
I’ve never sailed around the world,
its glories for to see.
I’m not a self-made millionaire,
that doesn’t worry me.
I have no need for fancy cars
or staying in chic hotels.
I have no wish to fly to Mars
or mingle with...
