I Bid You Farewell And Goodbye

Our hearts cry as we mourn in sadness.
But death in its essence is its own form
of madness.

A thousand tissues wiping the leakage
of our eye's issues cant ease the path
of pain that flows through our hearts
 any less.
 
From a man,
 a man we loved dearly being laid to
 his rest. Go home, be at peace,
 no more pain or struggle for you,
 as we lay you to your rest.

 In the best home you could ever have
between the arms lying  peacefully in our
Christ and Savior's chest.

We sob, smile, as well as laugh, and cry
while we look in Gods blue sky.
Its sad
while thinking of the times we all shared the
 good and even the bad.

I smile so big from ear to ear it
sparkles bright just as like in a rainbow.
As I hear his voice in my ear gently saying
 "don't let one monkey stop the show".

I give you a kiss goodbye, and a box of
your favorite items as I bid you farewell
 on journey to God.

Yes, we do. Mourning is for the living, and each of us do it in our own way. This is a stunning tribute to a man who so obviously meant a lot to the writer...I love your ending, as it is a glorious sending. Thank you for sharing this with us.
