Orchid

Today is the last chance to say goodbye.
Goodbye to a person who knew the true meaning of life.
Never to be seen again,
She is to be buried with Mother Earth.
Welcomed by the open arms of the Golden Gates above,
She will find happiness once more.

Precious memories live within
Those she left behind.
Every smile, every tear, every argument,
Now rests in peace.

A single flower is placed on her sanctuary.
Here comes goodbye,
The last time before she flies.
Before everything is set aside,
Until we one day meet again,
At those wondrous Golden Gates.
