Freckles
Hear one, hear all
The very sad news
I’ve joined your club
I’ve paid my dues
I now know of what you speak
When needed the words you seek
Are simply just not there
Leaving you standing, gasping in despair
It’s just a bird, they say
Not knowing what that means
To have lost a friend today
As down your face a single tear streams
And time stands still, when comes the silent roar
As you hear those words so clear
Heralding what the future has in store
Refusing to accept, to believe, as you face your greatest fear.
“He was just a bird!”
But that’s not true
He was my friend
I’m telling you!
“He’s gone,” he says with whispered voice
As the blood rushes to your head
And you know, if he’d only had the choice
He would not want to say, “Your friend is dead”
So here I sit, contemplating
Is this a dream or is this real
So, here I sit, waiting
Trying hard to just, not feel
Fare thee well my little friend
We shall meet again once more
As we all gather in the end
To stand together in front of heavens door
“I Love you Freckles!”

I can't even imagine losing one of my dearest friends. My heart goes out to you. Take time...to remember.. special moments...sounds that bought smiles to your face..the moments of mischief..times where your heart was touched..We will never be the same as we have been loved..Posted 09-14-2008 at 08:37 PM by birdlady4
