goodbye
It's a happy one, I promise, full of smiles and hugs and rainbows etc.
Well maybe that's a bit OTT, but I sat down to write a sad one and this is what came out, and it is at worst gleeful - like the tiniest beacon of hope shining out from a dirt filled grave ... =D.

About a year ago 'goodbye'
was not my favorite word,
but now it's why I say 'hello,'
I know that sounds absurd.
The moments when we bid farewell
are times I can't replace,
for first we smile, then say 'goodbye,'
then I'm graced by your embrace.
And in that moment I find faith
and the answers to my prayer,
as all I ever dream about
comes true as I hold you there.
And so once more we say 'so long,'
embrace like true best friends,
as secretly I think of us
and hope this never ends.
Perhaps it's not what friends should do
but I don't care, not one bit,
because if heaven could exist
I assure you this is it.

Well done, you talented - if not, sexy - writer.
Who would have thought after so much writers' block a joyful little number like this would bounce it's way to those rattataptapping fingurs of yours ...

I agree with your first critic . . .
well done. Gratitude even at the beginning of temporary absences -- must be a very special person.
I LIKE your outlook.

Wonderful to read a new poem from you! This is a very lovely piece... delightful to read! It is filled with a menagerie of feelings that invokes warm and loving thoughts. Enjoy all the 'goodbyes' and 'embraces' you can... for they are few and far between.
Wishing you happy days.....Jerry
