I wanted to start a thread to share some Goodbyes if anyone feels so inclined to share it would be very welcome! For the forum poets and also for anybody else who may stumble through.
I have had some really wonderful interactions here over the years ! Too many names to count!
I was not feeling inspired to write anything, I had a quick look at google to see if I could find something fitting by other authors... (Still searching on that front).
In my crazed efforts to save that which I felt worth saving, I found this poem I wrote a few years back, changed some of the words and thought that I would shamelessly plug it here
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cordial goodbyes...wrapped up in a cloak of grief...
Letting go of memories once captured, now set to be released.
Recuperated doves whose wings have healed as
time revealed that we will never again be the same.
Nothing captured, nothing gained, no wounds need healing for only love remains.
Love remembered, remembrance gained...
The present will never again be the same.
Cordial goodbyes...
One last word of love
one last hug sent across the dark divide, space and time...
Be well my friends - may all our hearts feel renewed. May the spark of the divine in me reach out to remember and honour the light in you.
