Gone

Neville

Gone

 

When the day comes

and I am gone

No longer here

nor maybe anywhere ..

…

Do think of me won’t you

and near you too

Not just vaguely remembered

since that is where

I will almost surely be ..

    Aww, I will think of ya. I never knew ya was going anywhere. Where was ya gonna go? To the Co-op?! A tad expensive there, I find.

      ................. I normally let the chauffeur take the maid and au pair out on shopping days .. 🙂

        They go to the Co-op? It's Poundland for me. Then a 99p Shop sprung up. I thought they had all closed - the latter?

        So moving these words of appeal to a special someone - -- gone only in presence lovers' feelings need no form and can travel across skies, seas and deserts as the poem infers - -- a tenderly warming thought my friend................ x.

          Really? Is there no way to get rid of you? just kidding.

          I suppose this is thought we have when we know only too well that were the boot on the other foot.... there would be thoughts of them wherever our feet had shared a path, our bums a chair, our eyes a sight. Even places anew would be in the company of thoughts of them.
          Very moving..

            You will be remembered by loved ones but you cannot go yet, especially if you are like me, I still have too many people to upset yet! LOL.

              I have always been intrigued by people's 'last words' (or those claimed to be at least) and their self chosen epitaphs, you glean so much more understanding to the person they always wanted to be,
              a revealing and brave write, much more refined and eloquent than my own 'Fare ye Well' effort as well, lol
