Farewell

by Laura   May 7, 2007


We are unable to mask our sadness
On this final day when you must go
Betrayed by our facial expressions
You will be missed more than you know

Celebrating in honour of a new beginning
No "Goodbye" for this shall not be the end
Parting with the words "Until next time"
In each of us you have found a true friend

This was written for someone who was leaving work to start a new job. We made him a card and this was the poem we inserted for him. I was the author of the poem and the other girls made the card!!

    The feelings and emotions were filled in this masterpiece and it was so chillling..You reflected the truths well and used such powerful words
    My fave lines should be;

    No "Goodbye" for this shall not be the end
    Parting with the words "Until next time"

    Keep it up,
    From another Laura

    That is such a beautiful piece, Laura. I can feel the emotions through your words... I especially loved these two lines:

    Betrayed by our facial expressions
    You will be missed more than you know

    You're such an amazing and inspirational writer!
