(Dedicated to Frank and Bernie – together for 42 years -on the day off Frank’s Celebration of Life)

The hole in my heart, the place I have cried a million tears

The beach I have walked alone as I wept.

There are places I will travel, to be held in the silence of missing you

where the Elk and the Bear will witness my grief

The ocean imitates my tears

Salty tears taste like the ocean

as they fall to my bare feet

every grain of sand on our beach you have walked

I will forever see your footprints

I am standing on our beach knowing you are near

My beautiful Frank, today we farewell you, every day we will honour you

There isn’t enough sand on our beach, that could fill the hole in my heart, that your death has left me in…
