Goodbye

There once was a boy named Steven

He sat writing in a café

Everyone seemed to wonder

Just what he had to say

 

Each time he produced some words

People’s hearts began to lift

As if the sun ignited

And new emotions began to sift

 

He had a spark of hope in him

That leaped to whom he pleased

He spent his life chasing dreams

Yet his mercy never ceased

 

He was and is my very best friend

But now he’s going away

He’s saying goodbye and reminiscing

Wishing, oh longing, yes praying, that he may stay

although it's hard to see a friend go, perhaps his work is needed elsewhere. So you can be happy know that this person who has made you and everyone around you happy, will have a chance to spread the joy. :-)

Hm. I never though of it that way. That's a good concept and I'll do my best to look at it that way! Thanks so much for your review and advice, I appreciate it! ((:

I like the rhyming in this--it flows nicely. :)

Thank you!

We all will miss him. He was a great writer, and although I didn't know him too well, I will miss the impact he had here. Great write and I hope one day he comes back :)

[That1Nerd23]

Yes, I feel the same way. And thank you. (:

You stole the words right out of my mouth. It seems Steven changed the life of everyone he spoke to.

[That1Nerd23]

Yes, I agree. He is such a great guy. Miss him so much! :((

A poem dedicated to our very own, Steven Cash.

Yeah, I hate when that happens, a close or best friend has to move away. Then you have to spend as much as you can with them for the last time. Because you know you won't be seeing them for an awful long time. Great write here. I truly understood the underlying message in this poem. :)

[That1Nerd23]

Yeah, it's rough.
Thanks so much for your review. To be honest, I really really needed the encouragement! Appreciate it!
