Farewell to the "Belfast Boy"

This Poem, written by a Belfast woman, Julie McClelland.
Was read today by Callum Best, at the funeral of his Dad.
Not only is it a wonderful poem,
it sums up our feelings towards Bestie in his Pomp.
( thanks to Michael Parkinson/TV am)

So I would just like to say, Cheers George, and Thank You.

"Farewell our friend, but not goodbye.
Your time has come, your soul must fly.
To dance with angels, find the sun,
but how we'll miss our special one"

He walks among us just a while,
weaved your magic, made us smile.
"Your life was so full of light and tears,
we lived it through you, through the years"

The golden days, they went so fast.
The precious times, why can't they last?
"So many loved you, did you know?
We were not ready to let you go.

"The stars from Heaven are only lent.
A gift from God, that's why they're sent.
We won't forget our Belfast boy,
he filled our lives with so much joy.

Your star will shine now in the sky.
“Farewell our friend, but not goodbye."
