So Long For Now
by Yvonne Legge

You look so peaceful lying there

With your hands folded upon your chest.

You look like you are sleeping

But you are at eternal rest.

So Long For Now.

Not a hair out of place,

Your make-up nicely done,

A beautiful smile upon your lips -

For now you are with Absalom.

When someone special passes on

It does not mean they are gone,

Though they are no longer with us

Their memory still lives on.

It hurts so much to lose a friend -

Especially one that is trustworthy and kind.

Dad, you were that special friend,

A rare and special find.

Dad, you will always be with me

In spirit and in mind.

You will always have a special place in my heart

Forever until the end of time.

Dad, I will not say "Good-bye".

This is not the end.

So I will just say,

"So long..."Until we meet again.
