Goodbye

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

To the world I’ve known

The happiness made, the sorrow sown


Goodbye..

Goodbye..

To the sweetness of life

The pleasures, the joy, and even the strife


Goodbye…

Goodbye…

To the birds and the trees

The soft spring rains, and warm autumn breeze


Goodbye….

Goodbye….

To the lakes and the hills

All of the flowers, especially daffodils


Goodbye…..

Goodbye…..

To the plans and the joys

The dreams of girls, thoughts of boys


Goodbye……

Goodbye……

To soon it seems

For my thoughts, my hopes, my desires, my dreams


Goodbye…….

Goodbye…….

With this last retort

Life was good, but all too short
