-- One Last Look -– John Herlihy The last goodbye, Now over and past. The last kiss, Never truly last. The last word, Never again heard. The last smile, Does linger a while. The last hope Very little rope The last day, Now stolen away. The last hour, But a rain shower. The last second, No one reckoned. One last look, Holding my hand. A look to forever last, Farewell her reprimand. - - - - - - (c) John Herlihy 24 January 2019

SOME LAST LOOKS ARE AS YOU SAID...NEVER FORGOTTEN. THUS, THEY ARE ALWAYS REMEMBERED AND DEPENDING UPON THE 'TONE OF IT'...THIS COULD BE GOOD, OR BAD. WELL DONE AND ENJOYED. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+ INSPIRATIONS

Oh, wow, such an identifiable expression for all of us who have suffered the loss of someone we cherished. This has both live and deceased qualities that resonate on both levels for me, having experienced both kinds of loss and reluctance to let go. The gateway to sorrow you often portray for us to appreciate, both your suffering and our own identity is truly a generous gift. Thank you, John. You are special.
