A Silent Goodbye Poem Verses

In the hush of the night, a silent goodbye,
A parent we've lost, beneath the moonlit sky,
Gone too soon, with so much left to share,
We'll miss your love, your gentle care.

With every tear that falls, every aching sigh,
We'll remember your touch, your love, so nigh,
In the quiet moments, your memory we'll trace,
Wishing to hold you, in a tender embrace.

A silent goodbye, a love we'll forever miss,
In the depths of our hearts, a longing abyss,
Though you're gone, your love we'll carry,
In our thoughts, dear parent, forever you'll tarry.
