Time to say Goodbye

0“Kathryn Says Goodbye”
Entering in through the open door,
to join a crowd of such alot more.
The evening hours had just begun,
as more folk entered for the fun.
With a good selection close not far,
drinks are ordered from the bar.
A period of time to celebrate,
as more folk arrive through the gate.
The use of speech fills the air,
within the room funished with care.
Seats reserved for a crowd of twelve,
there to sort out amongst themselves.
A table laid for use with food,
from the menus where eyes are glued.
A dish to begin, plus main course,
all to be ordered with such force.
Requests are taken and during the wait,
for arrival of food upon the plate.
Talks go on around the bench,
together with drinks to help and quench.
Music plays in the evening light,
for all pleasure and such delight.
Meals are handed, there to enjoy,
in such silence and employ.
Linda, Sally, Sandy, Sue,
Mary, Tony, Jean and James too.
Joining Kathryn at the bar,
as a farewell tune plays to the star.
A final round of drink delivered,
together with a toast as speech is said.
To wish success and all the best,
as a goodbye word is well addressed.

Goodbye Sister

0Goodbye sister your leaving now,
i don’t know why and i don’t know how.
i have pulled together all my pride to say,
i will miss your face in every way.
i will miss the way you yelled in my face,
when you said the clothes i wore were a disgrace.
you shouted when i wanted to borrow your stuff,
the answers i gave were never enough.
i will miss the days when i ran home in tears,
you would wipe them away with all of my fears.
you helped me with work and did my hair,
you wernt perfect but i didn’t care.
but now your leaving and changing your name,
but the feelings for you will remain the same.
i will never forget you until my end,
goodbye great sister my special friend.
