Condolences Poem - please help?

Question

Im not a "flowery" person but a friend has just lost her father. I remember reading a very lovely comforting poem on a condolence card before, but I cant find it. Its about a person standing sad saying goodbye to their loved one, saying There He Goes. While they are doing that, there are other people waiting, smiling saying Here He Comes. I would be grateful if anyone could find it for me. Thankyou

thanks psicatt, but its not that poem. Its much shorter and I think a boat may be involved, but not sure. its basically saying that when we are crying saying goodbye, to be aware that somewhere else there are people waiting for him, and saying happily here he comes,
