Short Leaving Poems
**
Adieu!
I have too grieved a heart


to take a tedious leave.
by William Shakespeare
**
As a chapter closes in your life,


And a new one starts for you,


May your years be filled with all the things


You've been looking forward to!
Bye!!
**


**
It’s not hard to find the words, 


There are lots that come to mind.


To show appreciation for someone being kind.


So for all the special things you do,


The niceness that you share,


A big thank you from the heart for all the ways you care.


But I've got to go now!
**
Why does it take a minute to say hello


and forever to say goodbye?
**
Goodbyes are not forever.


Goodbyes are not the end.


They simply mean I'll miss you


Until we meet again!
**
Excuse me, then! you know my heart;


But dearest friends, alas! must part.


by John Gay
**
Ye flowers that drop, forsaken by the spring,


Ye birds that, left by summer, cease to sing,


Ye trees that fade, when Autumn heats remove,


Say, is not absence death to those who love?
by Alexander Pope
**
The best things said come last. 


People will talk for hours saying nothing much 
and then linger at the door with words


that come with a rush from the heart.
by Alan Alda
**
I've got to leave you, I've got to go
I can't stand this anymore;


I don't know where our love went


I don't know anything for sure.
**
Gone - flitted away,


Taken the stars from the night and the sun


From the day!


Gone, and a cloud in my heart.
by Alfred Tennyson
**
Farewell my friends I have to go


Because it's very late you know


It's past my bedtime that's for sure


And sleep is the only cure
by Margmax 2012
**
There was a young man from Jarrow


Who went to work in a barrow;


He never came home from this day to next


His friends were totally bemused and vexed
**

You are leaving on a plane


Don't know if you'll be home again;


Why can't you be on the train or a bus


Going around on the local terrain?
**
Even if you are on the right track


You'll get run over, if you just sit there.
**
There once was a fellow from Yuma,


Who told an elephant joke to a puma


Now his skeleton lies,


Under hot western skies,


The Puma had no sense of huma!
**
I must go down to the sea again,


To the lonely sea and the sky;


I left my shoes and socks there -


I wonder if they're dry?


Spike Milligan
**
Leaving Poems
**
I don't care where you're going


I don't care where you've been;


All I know is you're not staying here


That's not fair as now you are dear!
**
Don't leave us to go off where?


You could stay and you we dare;


There's a choice of Shields you see


North or South, they're both great we swear.
**
A pretty young maiden from France


Decided she'd "just take a chance.

"
She let herself go


For an hour or so


And now all her sisters are aunts.
**
Go away girl, go away


And let me pack my dreams 


Now where did I put those yesteryears


Made up with broken seams
Where shall I sweep the pieces


My God they still look new


There's a taxi waiting at the door


But there's only room for you 


Spike Milligan
**
With a new adventure that's filled


With sun and sea and sand;


I wish you well and make new friends


I've got something else planned!
**
I'd like to wish you luck
I really, really would;


But you've really hacked me off


So bugger off you should.
**

We've moved home 
We've gone quite a way 


We've gone quite a way 


Too far for a cuppa 
It's an overnight stay


The door's always open 
We'd love you to come 


So here are the details 
For you to find our new home
**


You and I will meet again


When we're least expecting it


One day in some far off place


I will recognize your face


I won't say goodbye my friend


For you and I will meet again
by Tom Petty
**
Sweet is the memory of distant friends!

Like the mellow 
rays of the departing sun,

it falls tenderly, yet sadly,
on the heart.
by Washington Irving
**
May brooks and trees and singing hills


Join in the chorus too,


And every gentle wind that blows


Send happiness to you.
an Irish Blessing
**
May the road rise up to meet you,
may the wind be ever at your back.


May the sun shine warm upon your face


and the rain fall softly on your fields.


And until we meet again,


may God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
an Irish Blessing

Goodbye verses

**
As a chapter closes in your life,


And a new one starts for you,


May your years be filled with all the things


You've been looking forward to!
**
May you always have walls for the winds,


a roof for the rain,

tea beside the fire,


laughter to cheer you,

those you love near you,


and all your heart might desire.
an Irish Blessing

**
Happy trails to you, until we meet again.


Some trails are happy ones,


Others are blue.


It's the way you ride the trail that counts,


Here's to a happy one for you.
by Dale Evans
**
Be well,


do good work

,
and keep in touch.


Garrison Keillor
**
I'm missing you already


and you've not gone yet;


Our laughs and our silly jokes


You'll miss me too I bet.


If I get the chance
I will visit you;


Its just a shame


You're going to Timbuktoo.
by Maggie-May
**
Why does it take a minute to say hello


and forever to say goodbye?

Leaving Poems
Why can't we get all the people together in the world


that we really like and then just stay together?


I guess that wouldn't work.


Someone would leave.


Someone always leaves.


Then we would have to say good-bye.


I hate good-byes.


I know what I need.


I need more hellos.
by Charles M. Schulz
**

For the last two years my heart


Has jumped at the mention of your name;


But after this last fiasco


It will never be the same.
So I'm going to leave you now


I deserve better and so do you;


We can't live like this anymore


I need someone who can be true
by Maggie-May
**
Don't cry because it's over.


Smile because it happened.
by Theodor Seuss Geisel
**
Let's not unman each other - part at once;


All farewells should be sudden, when forever,


Else they make an eternity of moments,


And clog the last sad sands of life with tears.
by Lord Byron
**
I know that this will break your heart


But you know this can never be;


We've tried and tried to make it work


But this is the end of you and me.
Love shouldn't be like this
It should come quite easy;


As you cope with life together


I know to you this sounds cheesey.
The battles should be with the outside world


Not with us here inside our home;


We can't agree on anything


But I'm not going to moan.
So its the big goodbye my love


We should have waited longer;


Before tying the knot


Maybe we'd have been stronger.
by Maggie-May
**
Leaving Poems
**
Great is the art of beginning,


but greater is the art of ending.
by Lazurus Long
**
One kind kiss before we part,


Drop a tear, and bid adieu;


Though we sever, my fond heart


Till we meet shall pant for you.
by Robert Dodsley
**
Only in the agony of parting do we look 
into the depths of love.
by George Eliot
**
Parting is all we know of heaven


and all we need to know of hell.
by Emily Dickinson, "Parting"

**

There will always be a place in my heart


You will always be a part of my life;


It's just that I don't feel right


That you become my wife.
I haven't been deceitful


I just haven't been true to my own heart;


As courage deserted me when things got out of hand


I should have told you from the very start.
The doubts have been there a long time now


So I know it's not just the jitters;


I know the hurt and unhappiness


Will fade, and right now that's all that matters.
It is time for us to part


Our love has become faded;


It hasn't stood the test of time


It has become quite jaded.
by Maggie-May
**
Vamoosh, disappear, off to the horizon


I am just a distant speck:


You didn't see that one coming


Or you would have said "By heck!"
**
I'm going, I'm going and I'm gone


I can't do this anymore;


I'm sorry if this leaves you stuck


But I'm off now out that door.
**
Stand up and walk out of your history

.
Phil McGraw
Well that's a word of advice


I'm picking up right now;


As I can't see this going anywhere


Anytime and certainly no how!
**
We only have an allotted time


We can't afford to waste;


Not a day, not a minute


We need to change our taste!
**
Sorry you're leaving, 
your loss will be greatly felt,


but I won't over-exaggerate 
and say my heart will melt!


It's really hard to say goodbye,


to such a friend and pal, 
with tears in eyes and lump in throat, 


Adios! Au revoir! Farewell!
**
Build a bridge. Get over it.
**
May brooks and trees and singing hills


Join in the chorus too,


And every gentle wind that blows


Send happiness to you.


Irish Blessing
**
The song is ended, but the melody lingers on.
**
You will always remain in my heart


But I must leave you now;


As this chapter is all storied out


And it's over anyhow!
**
When water remains in one place, it spoils.
"Do not stay the same for ever"
**
Our love is not enough anymore


There's not enough love left in our hearts;


Our differences are much too great


And our lives have grown apart.
**
I've got to leave you, I've got to go


I can't stand this anymore;


I don't know where our love went


I don't know anything for sure.
Except that this won't get any better


No matter what we try;


I am so very sorry you know


And baby-please don't cry!
If tears could mend our broken hearts


We would be tickety-boo!


We would love and laugh forever


But you and I both know that's not true.


Maggie-May

**
Please keep me in your memory


As part of your lifes story book;


I've got to go and leave you


But I will be back by hook or by crook.
by Maggie-May
**
Forgive,


But never forget.


Love,


And never regret.


The one,
Is the one,


you will never forget,


And will make you never,


Want to regret.
by Nikki
**

Forget not yet the tried intent 


Of such a truth as I have meant


My great travail so gladly spent


Forget not yet.
Forget not yet when first began 


The weary life ye knew,

since whan 
The suit, the service, none tell can, 


Forget not yet.
Forget not yet the great assays,


The cruel wrongs, the scornful ways,


The painful patience in denies 
Forget not yet.
Forget not yet, forget not this, 


How long ago hath been, and is, 


The mind that never means amiss; 
Forget not yet.
Forget not yet thine own approved, 


The which so long hath thee so loved, 


Whose steadfast faith yet never moved, 
Forget not this.
by Thomas Wyatt
**
You can make me smile, one last time,


Before I fall apart.


I just want one chance to tell you what's true,


With what's left of my broken heart.
I don't want you to leave,


When I still have so much to say.


Promise you'll never forget me,


I promise I'll never forget you.


I can't help but cry as I write,
Because I know every word is true.


Never forget the smiles we've shared,


Please don't forget the memories we've made.


When you go, don't erase me,
Don't let the passions fade.


Never forget the times I've held you,


I'd do anything to hold you again.


I want you there until the very end,
Don't ever forget that I love you

You will always be everything that shines,


I'll never forget the time I first looked at you,


And fell in love with your eyes...
by Bittersweet Sundown

Destined to go far
I hope your new workmates (and neighbors)
Know how lucky they are

That must be counted ere I see thy face?
How shall I charm the interval that lowers
Between this time and that sweet time of grace?

Not to understand a treasure's worth till time has stole away the slighted good, is cause of half the poverty we feel, and makes the world the wilderness it is.

The pang of all the partings gone
And partings yet to be.

Work will be dull without you
You always brightened our day with a laugh or two
We hope your new colleagues will appreciate
In you they have a colleague who's great

Please let us know from time to time
How you are doing - we hope it's always fine
Give us a ring, meet us for a drink
Shoot the breeze - what do you think?

We wish you well - we really do
Although we will surely miss you
So let us know from time to time
How thing's are ring or email a line

I am so glad that I met you
Although our acquaintance was quite short
All the things you say and do
I will remember when we are apart

I wish you luck in your future
and hope life is kind to you
and as the years mature
may they be good in everything you do
