Goodbye Old Friend ~ Budge 2012

















A wrinkle in time,
moments pass by.
Wings of feather,
you and I..
Years together,
new places, new faces,
now memories of past time.
Colors so bright,
a rainbow with wings,
flutter into the light.
In body you are gone,
nestled deep in my heart.
Reminding me of where I was,
and where I have been..
My dear pet bird,
we will miss you
and thank you for the
years you have been
our feathered friend.
