Sweeter Goodbye

i deserved a sweeter goodbye 
one with less bruises 
more understanding 
less poison 

but what could i expect 
when your tongue is laced with it 
and your nails are sharp 
and the golf club has never left your hand

I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
