    Passing Bye

    Though you are out of sight
    you are never far from my thoughts.
    I can still see you standing there
    holding your own in this crazy place we call life.
    Where ever you are now,
    there is nothing more in this world
    that I could ever imagine,
    than to know that you,
    the Peacemaker,
    the comedic relief to an ordinary day,
    the pure soul of wisdom,
    the decoder of what should be the simplest thing’s in life,
    having the ability to unscramble and relay them
    with perfect understanding,
    will always live in the memories and hearts,
    of everyone you have ever touched.

    There is no grief in my eyes tonight
    as I travel endless miles
    further down this winding road
    of trials and tribulations
    which have yet to come.
    I have created a forum in my mind
    to capture all the picture perfect moments,
    almost like an unwritten screenplay of unique characters,
    you may have chosen to share with me through out the years.
    And now without reserve,
    I hold them all so dear next to my heart.

    So until we met again,
    I will see you in my dreams,
    ten thousand dreams
    and know,
    Your presence,
    even though now is not physical,
    will forever fill me with comfort.
    Comfort in knowing
    that I can wake up tomorrow,
    cross off yesterday from my calendar,
    and know that I am one day closer
    to being with you again.

    This poem inspired my songwriting career and has been approved by an artist for CD release.

    YOUR LOSS IS FELT IN THIS POEM, SO IS YOUR HOPE. HOPE THIS POEM BRINGS MORE COMFORT.

    Thanks so much. I actually submitted this as song lyrics and it won best directors pick last month and was recorded by the Paramont Studio in Nashville, TN.

    Thanks so much. I wrote it for my 23 year old brother who passed away 5 years ago

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
