My best friend recently passed, and this is the poem I wrote for to read at her memorial service.

A new angel dwells in heaven,
she moved in just today.
I got the dreaded phone call
saying, "Your friend has passed away."

I can't see her face or touch her hand
or tell her not to go.
I didn't get to say, "goodbye,"
or say, "I love you so."

But, I know she still can hear me.
She didn't go far away.
She dwells within my memories
and all my yesterdays.

I'll hold her image in my heart
and remember what I see.
I'll not forget the times we've shared,
My special friend and me!
