No matter the time, nor the place,
Neither the year, or even the face,
It hurts to wish a friend goodbye,
To watch them spread their wings to fly.
I'm glad you've found your new road,
And that your pain, time did erode.
To have never met is hardly a crime,
I only wish that we had more time.
It has been a pleasure to read
The masterpieces that you write;
Best wishes in the future -
May it be warm and bright.
Author notes
I cannot believe you are leaving us Cannonsfire, I have enjoyed reading your works on Ireland, amongst others, so much! Best wishes in all that you do from here on; and apologies for such a ridciulously corny write. Poetry never ends up how I want it to these days.

well done
warm and sentimental, gentle kindness and strong use of rhyme. the parting glass is the hardest glass, like whiskey it goes down hard and to the point.
i see you have developed a strong relationship with the faceless actions of those you admire. this is the strongest admiration as it is not about skin or orientation.
well done,
all the best,
