Did I shoo a child away today
much as I’d shoo a fly
Or was it my wife who said hello
~ that I’ve just turned to goodbye
This is when we say goodbye to Emmaleigh
Where we said hello and passed her in the halls of CGB
Mamdani’s bankrupting New York
Chicago’s Mayor’s a big dork
They both raise taxes
Each city collapses
In every road there’s a new fork
The Final Descent
He is making the final descent,
from a long, turbulent Parkinsons flight.
Flown across many days,weeks,months,years and time zones..
Dim now the cabin lights.
Watch the stars flicker on the runway below;
As the wheels of life kiss the ground one last time.
The last conversion has been kicked.
The final kilometre kite is in sight.
The last call to,take the strain and pull,rings out.
The Drumlin hills bow their heads in respect.
Siochs, full with winter rains,flow in silence.
Leaves,on the fairy tree rustle at half mast.
The sun,dances one last ray across Windy Harbour;
as dusk comes dropping slowly.
A red sky, sinks into a western glow
As the shepard settles,one last time, into a peacful sleep..
Death can alter
Death can change anything at the altar
Death can deter
Death can damage the liver and the motor
Death is powerful
Death is really awful
Death is painless for the deceased
Death can destroy mums and lilies
Death can change schedules
Death kills bookworms, nerds and fools
Death can. Death can change everything
Under the moon. Death can change anything
Death can
Death can easily kick the can.

September winds stripping last remains of summer
AP: Honorable Mention 2025
It's clear that you love me
But i don't understand why
After the things I have done
And all times I made you cry
I've let you down many times
And put those tears on your face
I hate myself for creating you pain
Along with all your disgrace
I cannot fathom how you felt
Each time your heart was broke
The pain and shame you hid
Behind depressions dark cloak
You stood up for me each time
Even knowing I was in the wrong
Your love must unconditional
And it's grace I do not belong
You deserve someone who's worthy
And who isn't the reason you to cry
This is difficult because I love you
But it time that we say goodbye
Farewell at last
I say goodbye
My time is growing short
We meet once more
The last, I’m sure
Beneath a painted sky
When finally the world is lifted
From these words we speak
The shame, the fear, the doubt will crumble
Worthless, to our feet
With language as a cover
Just a fake facade
A camouflage of kind to ponder
Under aimless stars
I journey on to vagrant times
I fill my troth again
With dreams of sweet tomorrow
And a heart now free from sin
Francis J Grasso...written 2025.09.11
Our relationship is on shaky ground
We don't kiss each other like before
We don't say hello and goodbye anymore
We give each other the runaround
For the grace of God
We need to sit down to talk things over
We need the help of the Lord
Countless serious promises were made
That we must keep, cherish and honor
We must always sleep in the same bed
Until the end of time, until eternity
We must behave and act maturely
We must discuss everything thoroughly
We must smile and be nice to each other
We must live in peace and in harmony
And our love and passion must last forever.

Are only 3 years of marriage
We have both come to know
We can't continue this anymore
Its time one of us must go
Understand it's difficult for me
To be walking out that door
But it hurts me to stay here
And continue to hurt you more
Know that I truly do love you
But I don't know how to love you
I put the pain on your face
And I know it's in your heart too
To show you how much I care
I'll tell you what I'm going to do
I'm packing all my things
Then I'm going to divorce you
It's gonna break your heart
But I'll never hurt you again
And in time you find a new love
A d your story with him will begin
And though I'm dying inside
I must tell you goodbye
Please move on and enjoy life
I'm going to sit here and cry
I’ll never forget when we first met
Fireworks lit up the dark night skies
As I held you tightly in my arms
I could see the love in your eyes
With you my world finally felt whole
I believed your love would be my last
Our life together was that of dreams
But all good things are never steadfast
It started with a little quarrel we’d have
Then in a flash our love had gone bad
Your smile had suddenly became extinct
And being with me only made you sad
Our fights were growing more intense
And all we did was scream and yell
That love that once pleased my heart
For us had now become a living hell
The woman I thought I’d love forever
And the one who I had made my wife
Has now become a distant stranger
Who is painfully no longer in my life
Where did you go
Where have you gone
Please tell me you will be back
You won’t be long
Or are you in your little cottage
Above the clouds in the sky
A place where love and contentment
Are always in full supply
Where colourful flowers forever bloom
Music and laughter are blissfully heard
The sun always shines
Kindness is the unwritten word
Where pure joy surrounds you
There is peace in your heart
Where you wanted to reside
When from this earth you did depart
The place you always called Heaven
Where angels come from
Are you one of them now
My lovely sweet mum
If that is where you are
I will say my goodbye
For I know you are happy
In your heavenly home in the sky
Sweet summer is kissing goodbye,
embracing the harvest moon nights,
summer birds bid adieu and fly,
sweet summer is kissing goodbye,
earth’s bosom heavy with a sigh,
tears of maple glow in moonlight,
sweet summer is kissing goodbye,
embracing the harvest moon nights.
The last stop
Of any Journey
Is the first stop
Into the Unknown
So many friends came to say goodbye
Remember the good times, not going to cry
You were such a part of everyone you knew
A special someone for everything that makes up you
Hard to accept that you are no longer here
Keep waiting for the moment when you reappear
It really hit me, hearing the songs you wrote
Nobody else could quite hit that same note
You just had the voice, perfect for that sound
Never could be matched, from anybody around
You've always been a part of us, somewhere in the background
It doesn't feel right, not having you around
This may have come late, but now I realize
You have always been a special part of our lives
