Good bye Argentina

A swirl of colors
Clear white and baby blue
A song plays in the distance
Mourning what's come of you

A mere child of nine
Was forced off a land she loved immensely
She looked up to the skies
And said a farewell she hated intensely

Good-bye Argentina
My day shall come
You have my word it shall be
On this soil and beneath this sun

That child has grown
And with it the yearn
To the playground of her childhood
Of her land she wanted to learn

Days came and days went
Her dream grew and nourished
Like a daisy in the sun
Until she decided the day has come

We made all sorts of plans
And colored a future so bright
On the canvas of life
We painted a victorious night

She was on the first flight
On a beautiful Sunday noon
But instead of heading to Argentina
Her soul reached the heavens and blessed the moon

Eight years ago she said a farewell
With a promise she intended to keep
Her day has come
Under her Argentina sun indeed

A teen with eyes the color of honey
and a smile that lit hearts
She was truly Godsend
She was my best friend
