I’ve

I’ve climbed a mountain sailed the sea
Smoked a peace pipe with inner me
Cut cord on cord of egos prime
All for the cold of winter time

I’ve filed my memories in a file
To use in dream or day light wile
I’ve stored whatever store I’d need
More than Noah yes indeed

But change has come in dust and grime
And laid me low with sips of time
It rose about me from the floor
And here I thought it’d use the door

It makes no sense what I’ve been taught
You cannot stay what time has wrought
But I have learned what must be done
You must adjust to only one

What was given must be used
Or else you will remain confused

'What was given must be used'

And, dear sir, you put your abundant talent to good use in your poetic sharing~

I figgered this out just yesterday while organizing my pantry.

(Now I'm trying to figger out why organizing my pantry always gets me mad. Hmm. Weird thing to get ticked about considering how much other stuff ought to have temper priority. )

But yep, you sum it up for me, as you always do, lovie.

Thanks for summing it up too.

I suck at Math.

"It makes no sense what I’ve been taught

But I have learned what must be done

Time wise in thoughtful size.

Just popped in to say how much I enjoyed the read Sy!
You keep writing and I'll keep reading and smiling.
Hugging you tight, Nancy

Autumn, the year's last loveliest smile~

Marge,
Yes but------ I can't keep up with you.


serenity,
Besides my bad hearing that keeps me out of most conversations It seems I'm suffering from short term memory loss. Had some tests the other day but don't know the results yet. I'll let you know when I find out,
That is if I remember. LOL

Martie,
Thanks for quoting me.

passing,
Thanks for the wonderful miss wonderful.

Nancy,
Thanks for the tight hug, thems the best kind.

Brother if you can't have short term memory loss at your age, there is sure no hope for me!  I can't remember anything Sy, and it is actually getting hilarious!  I've learned so many lessons from your poetry and saved so much of it for the girls to read when they are older.  So "I've" to thank you.
