Sweet - bitter farewells
Spring follows winter
like January follows December
a never-ending cycle
year after year.
Grandparents, parents,
childhood friends
and neighbours leave
year after year.
Cousins, siblings,
nephews and nieces
depart from here
year after year.
Spouse and lover
current and former
die one after the other
year after year.
When offsprings and pets,
people and places become
bitter-sweet fading memories,
goodbyes trigger many a tear.
