I’ll Remember My eyes have dimmed to worldly sight And taste has lost its sharp of bite My skin has turned to paper-thin And hearing hears a lesser din. And pages turn a quicker pace And age takes on a quicker race And aches and pains replace the joy The paint has tarnished on this boy. I eat too much for what I do And read the check through glasses view Where music was my fantasy My hearing aids tinned ecstasy. Where change has always made a rush I blush and pass it on in flush I seem oblivious to most And time has turned my hide to toast. So if some day I do not see Just stop and say remember me? I’ll remember. |

Good afternoon, Mr. T. ~ It would be wonderful if you were to have a book--or books!--published of your wonderful sonnets! I also wanted to add something else to my reply, but I cannot remember what it was!  EA |

Seymour! Hello! I am back from my sister's and had such a lovely time that I miss her already and it's only been a few hours. Now, how could we possibly forget you? Or...how could you forget any of us? Each of us has touched each other's hearts with our openess of words. That's a blessing! I know it's late, so I will just let you decide when you would like these lovely butter tarts. hugs, Chris "There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart." ~Celia Thaxter~ [This message has been edited by Nightshade (07-16-2003 04:12 PM).] |

What a beauty this is! *S* There are some things we'll remember no matter how our senses might fail us... for the knowledge is embedded in our very cells. Friendship is one of those things... even if we need a little prompting on the names. *S* Big hugs to you, my friend... I'll remember this write. *S* But in case I forget it's in my library... could you put me on the list for one of your books, too? *S* Pretty please? *S* [This message has been edited by suthern (07-16-2003 04:20 PM).] |
