Too far to say goodbye
But never too far to feel it.
As soon as the news came in——
it was like I’d been stabbed in the heart
A piece of me had died.
The trees outside blossomed while the pollen swayed in the summer's breeze.
Inside there was stone cold silence. Hearing someone's breath was like a megaphone being put to your ear.
Whether he was in the garage fixing his MG or in the garden, everything was an adventure to him. Always making me dust myself off, after a trip to the beach before getting back into his brightly polished Volkswagen polo.
He reminds me of a river.
As he flows away on his next journey, his memories will last forever
A candle describes his life, when lit he was born and kept shining even in the darkest hour until finally blown out softly.
Everyday him watching over me, keeps me going
Trying to be a better person each day,
Trying to make him proud
I love you grandad
Too far to say goodbye
'Summer' by Yilong She
out with spring calling onto summer,
chill of the weary clouds into
the clear azure skies,
waves of searing heat
clashing against the golden radiant lights
buds blossoming,
fugitives of the wild flaunting in the day;
trees swaying in the whooshing wind
dancing to the mockingbirds’ calls
yet, what creature of land could
grasp the heavenly divinity of
Summer?
having eyes to see, but
blinded by the glistening rays of white and silver
