As days go by, what will I remember?
Soft and shallow goals,
Of wishes unfulfilled?
Or kind and gentle hands,
Family, friend, and kin.
Something that popped into my head after reading this.
You make valid points. Family, the ones you choose to have and the ones that despite being thrust upon you, fill your heart are the true joys in life. Time wears away all things. Only through family does anything worthwhile ever last.
Coyote, you are so right and the ending is brilliant. I loved seeing how you incorporated these pictures with the words, it was as if we could see into your mind as it was thinking through the lines. Truly a beautiful presentation. Thank you for sharing this wisdom with the community and for setting up this beautiful little presentation of your thoughts and talent. You are very appreciated in this community for consistently providing your insight through your writing and reviews and for the consistent quality of both.
A Poet and writer who love to read and write.
My pleasure is reading about the bad and good in a life.
Also to honor the Poets/Writers of the past by reading their words.
Remember .. more..
