No one knows
You were here

Even I
In their company
On hearing your name
Inside my head
Have begun to respond
Who?

All things of course
Have an end

The seasons’ change
Are often more defined
By what is then left behind

The leaves fall
Through autumn air

Soon the years
That followed you
Will cover all

This 'write' is supremely excellent...
[particularly the ending]...
a 'banquet for thought!

[In my opinion, that's several REALLY
  'important' writes in a row, John!!]

very serious and long-sustained applause!!

One of the reasons
we practice with five finger
exercises . . .

Thanks again
