IT WAS GOOD TO SEE YOU

Why did you have to go?
Guess I’ll never know.
Simply have to say, cheerio.
And let you go, though please
I don’t want you going away.

Can’t you stay? Even if it’s
Only for a wee while, please?
Please, I beg you to stay, only
For one more day, I know you
Don’t want to go.  
Why God called you, guess I’ll never know.

Thankfully, you left me with this
Thought and it helps each and every day.
In that hospital bed, when you said,
It was so good to see you.
Wherever you are, in that silent land
I know you loved me, why
Did you have to go?   Guess I'll never know.

You where the embodiment of goodness, wee Liz.
