Farewell to a friend

Κυρ Νίκο,

Δεν ξέρω τι σε οδήγησε να πράξεις και να αφαιρέσεις την ζώη σου. Αυτό που ξέρω είναι οτι δεν σου άξιζε τέτοιο τέλος. Ο Θεός να αναπαύσει και να σε συγχωρέσει... Αντίο.

From the father Theo "Amalia Gkourasas was born this morning at 10:23 am. She weighed in at 6 lb 10oz and is 48cm. Mother and daughter are doing very well!" Thank you Lee-Ann and Theo for making us uncle/aunts/grandparents for the 4th time! She is a truly a wonder and the best Easter gift we (as a family) have received. Wishing nothing but the best! Καλοφώτιστη, χιλιόχρονη και με υγεία. Ότι επιθυμείτε! Pictures follow after the break!

Literally the song writer (... and performer in this case) has an amazing talent, for putting emotions to words. I translated the lyrics for non-Greek folks.

My apologies to those that will not understand the below... you can try running it through a translator, but a lot will get lost in translation. I have also included another poem, one of my favourites, by Khalil Gibran, for your entertainment.  To those that will understand it, love it or hate it, just be gentle :)
