When I heard today Your passing away Regretted I Failed to pay You a visit why? Regretted I Why, why, why, why Failed to say goodbye On your sickbed Looking at your eye? Regretted I Told you not why Your kindness and honesty Were descriptions that defy? Of course I was submerged In life's Rest -not- knowing chores?

Regretted I
When I heard today Your passing away Regretted I Failed to pay You a visit why? Regretted I Why, why, why, why Failed to say goodbye On your sickbed Looking at your eye? Regretted I Told you not why Your kindness and honesty Were descriptions that defy? Of course I was submerged In life's Rest -not- knowing chores?
A close relative I hadn't seen for over three years died at a hospital while I was intending to visit him
