Saying Goodbye Is Not Easy

Saying goodbye is not easy
To not hear his voice or see his
spirited expressions can make
the faithfull queasy

He fought the good fight for many years
Praying for strength from heaven above
To help humanity and allay our fears
He practised what he preached and
tried to bring order to chaos with love.

His was a humble life at the beginning
He met evil headon and saw first hand
the result of war & sinning
He was the gentle Poppa that so many
of  us needed, a light touch to a child's
head.....even his touch the turtle doves heeded.

Saying goodby is not easy......
