Saying Goodbye
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2019
So difficult it is saying goodbye
At times it can make us cry.
Saying goodbye is never easy
At times it makes us feel so queasy.
Saying goodbye rather than "so long"
Can give us the feeling that this is wrong.
Saying goodbye with a tear in my eye
When I say it a lot and it makes me sigh.
Saying goodbye is a phrase that is old
Unlike hello, which at times is bold.
Saying goodbye can be a new beginning
Our memories will always be a blessing.
Saying goodbye can be so sweet
Because we know again we will meet.
Saying goodbye is not the end
Because we will always be friends!

As You Go Away
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Farewell, my friend, may blessings be spread
As you venture forth on the road ahead.
May success greet you at each new bend
And joy and fulfillment be your lifelong friend
Goodbye is bittersweet, but change is good too,
And I can't wait to see what lies ahead for you!
So go on, fly high and follow your dreams today,
Embrace the journey, as you go away.

We Bid Adieu
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
The time has come that we bid adieu,
A farewell to friends, both old and new.
Our paths diverge, each one to pursue,
But memories cherished, forever they'll accrue.
The laughter we shared, the tears we shed,
Through ups and downs, side by side we tread.
Though distance may grow and time may pass,
Our bond will remain strong our friendship will last.
As we part ways, our spirits ignite,
With dreams and hopes, reaching new heights.
Remember the journey, the stars shining bright,
For within us all, our friendship takes flight.
So let us say goodbye with a bittersweet smile,
Knowing that our connection will never defile.
Through life's adventures may our paths always cross
But we will always have our memories, they will never be lost.

Saying Goodbye Can Be Tough
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Saying goodbye can be tough,
Our hearts may feel a little rough.
But fear not my friend, have no fear,
For we'll meet again, maybe next year.
We'll laugh and talk as old friends do,
And remember the moments we shared anew.
So farewell, for now, it's not goodbye,
I will miss you that's not a lie!

An Irish Blessing
May you always have work for your hands to do
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

Hard To Say
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2021
Goodbyes are hard to say
We do not long for that day
But if we have to part
You will always be in my heart.
So on this day, I will hug you tight
And wish you a future that is bright
We may be going our separate ways
But we shall see each other again someday!

A Different Word
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2021
This world is filled with things that are right
Things that make you feel cheery and bright
And then there is also the wrong
Things that just don't belong.
When you think of right and wrong
The right helps you get a long
But often time the wrong will bring
Nothing that will make you sing.
And when I think of goodbye
I think of wrong, I can't deny
Goodbye seems final and so sad
Saying it doesn't make me glad.
But there are times in life when we must say
Goodbye, I will miss you in every way.
No matter why the goodbye must be said
It is something I do dread.
Perhaps we could use a different word
One which would not feel so awkward.
Words like "see ya", or, "so long to you"
Wishes like be happy in all you do.
Or "stay in touch, or, "we will see you soon"
Perhaps we will meet some afternoon.
Or "cheerio" has a much happier sound
It is easier to say without a frown.
Or, what about "Godspeed to you"
May He keep you safe in all you do,
Whatever expression you choose to use
Don't let saying goodbye make you blue.

No Regrets
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Goodbye, farewell, so long, for today,
But we will meet again my friend.
It may be a holiday, or it may be when we're gray
But one thing is for sure this is not the end.
Together we have been thru so much
Memories of happy and of sad
We must promise to stay in touch
Doing this will make us both glad!
Life will roll along for sure
But our friendship I'll never forget
Together we have endured
Good times, bad times, but no regrets!
