I lost a dear friend recently and this is my tribute to a very dear soul who brought a shining star into my life for the few months that I knew her. I used to visit her in the hospital.
Goodbye
LouLou My Friend
You
tiptoed into my life so gently,
A
loving heart, a feeble breath
A
pleasant word, a genuine smile
An
eager welcome forthcoming still
You
asked for nothing, demanded little.
Just
above a whisper, you only begged
“No, don’t go yet, stay abit longer”
Your
frail delicate voice entreated
And
I could not leave you so forlorn
I
hardly felt you pierce my heart
You
entered so discreetly as just a peasant "job”,
But
you curled into my soul so deeply
And
made my heart your “home sweet home”.
Your
resilient spirit is my beacon
Your
enormous foot prints my guiding path
So sleep my friend, sweet thy slumber
Away
from weary pain, distress
Sleep,
for someday I will join you
And
we’ll continue from where we left off.
I
will sorely miss you
Your
Friend
Cassie
