In memory of my friend Sandra’s boy, she loved him so and misses him beyond words. This poem is dedicated to Crosby because I know behind all the tears this is what Sandra would say. May he rest in peace and take good care of his life-time-buddy Zoccolo who joined him today.
Always in Sandra’s heart, my sympathy,
Yvonne
GOOD-BYE
With heavy hearts,
and a tear in our eyes
After all these years,
we must say goodbye.
Please understand,
we’ve done all we could
If there was anything
we could do,
you know we would.
I’m sitting right here,
gently rubbing your ears
While I talk to you softly,
trying to hold back the tears.
The memories you gave us,
we’ll never forget
Especially the ones
of the day we all met.
One last hug and
one last kiss
You have no idea
how much you’ll be missed.
To look into your eyes
this one last time
You tell me it’s okay,
you know it’s your time.
Close your eyes now and
go to sleep.
We’ll pray to the Lord
your soul he’ll keep.
Go in peace now,
our good friend
We’ll stay right here
with you until the end.
Dream of that special day
and time
When we’ll meet at the Bridge
and all will be fine,
We’ll run and play,
side by side
With a soft warm feeling
deep down inside.
Your memory will live
on in each one of us.
You’ll always be number
one to all of us.
Have a safe journey
through the night
I promise when you awake,
you’ll be in God’s light.
So with heavy hearts and
tears in our eyes
Just for now my friend,
we say goodbye.
