Mostly, I'll Miss You
by ©Richard J. Budig 1996

These are the things I will miss when I'm gone:
Puccini’s Un Bel Di from Madama Butterflly,
Pachelbel’s lovely Canon in D,
Mozart’s unending clarity of thought,
And Massinet's Meditation from Thais.
And I’ll miss the visions of
Rembrandt and Michealangelo,
The gentle hand of Sargent,
The mystery of Degas,
And the boldness of Lautrec
Yet, of all these, my dear,
Mostly, I'll miss you.

Beautiful, Richard. Obviously you have good taste.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me how could I ask for more?
