As The Time Comes To Say Goodbye Poem by GHOST WRITER

As The Time Comes To Say Goodbye



The boat sets sail
Sun shining bright
A magnificent summer’s day

We moor in a bay
His favourite fishing place
Then kind words spoken
Carry heavy weight

As the ashes are spread
Music magnifies the silence
‘It’s time to say goodbye’ (Andrea Bocelli)
Emotions, sadness, emptiness
As only thoughts and memories fill the room

The roses are adrift
Floating on the ripples of the water
Paving a magnificent avenue of roses
Floating toward home
Showing us the way back

Then the heavens open to shed its tears
Mirroring our sadness, our loss
Finally a ray of sun appears across the sky
Reflecting across the water
Dancing off the waves
Shining so bright
Signs of hope…. peace….

Though a very sad time
I find peace in having been part of it
For letting me share this
I am forever grateful
As the time comes to say goodbye
