    My dad died this last Nov. 16th. 100% agree with what you said, enjoy 'em while you got 'em. So sorry to hear but sounds like how I would want to go. Prayers for you and your family at this time.

    Gone from my Sight

    I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side
    spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and
    starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of
    beauty and strength. I stand watch her at length until
    she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the
    sea and sky come to mingle with each other.


    Then someone at my side says:
    “There, she is gone!”
    “Gone where?”


    Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in
    mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my
    side and she is just as able to bear her load of living
    freight to her destined port.


    Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just
    at the moment when someone at my side says:


    “There, she is gone!”


    There are other eyes watching her coming,
    and other voices ready to take up the glad shout:


    “Here she comes!”
