Passing

The news come so sudden,
There`s no time to reflect,
Or speak or think,
Only time to regret.
Your name I always knew,
But your face I forget,
I`m sorry...
Forgive me,
I`m trying my best.

I shall arrive in my colours,
And bid you farewell,
I shall smile at all the people,
And listen to the stories they tell,
I shall shake all their hands,
And feel out of place,
I shall do the right thing,
And remember your face.

May your journey ahead be loving and safe,
Your home is your heart,
In your resting place.

"Sleep Tight..."


Dedicated to

"Mary Teresa McInerney"
