Farewell (a poem)
We recently had a friend to stay, and when he left the house was so quiet! We really missed him. So I sat down and wrote this poem.
I hope you enjoy it.
Farewell
A Silence
All pervading
Dominates this place
Now you are gone.
It spreads
Its wings abroad
Like a black shroud
Leaving us bereft.
A bereavement
Profound and deep
A deafening intensity
Of solitude.
So! You are there
And we are here
Yet grateful
For times shared.
