In Due Time ~~~ When tomorrows' reckoning draws a bite and contemplation concedes to fear Most expectations fade their light as echoes flash from yesteryear ~ Aspersion paid to good advice proceeds to mock all sacrifice Return of futures past you see invades your pride and revelry What goes around comes back to be ... In due time ~~~ [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 06-25-2000).] |

I'll try this again, I lost my connection to the internet the last time I replied to it and it didn't 'take'. Great poem, Rex! We certainly do reap what we sow, no getting away from that!  Denise |

Thanks Denise I know what you mean about a bad connection ... I've been having major troubles with mine the past few weeks ... today the whole city was down for the count till about 8:30 at night ... All the rain we've been having is doing weird things to the underground cables I guess |

Rex, I swear there are many people out here talking me tonight! What goes around sure does come around. Words so true! Thanks for talking to me... *thanks for you pointing out that error too* |

Rex, In a few brilliant words, you have summarised what most people never manage to understand in the whole life... Thanks for sharing this wonderful piece of your thoughts... regards, sudhir Death, be not proud, though some have called thee, Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so; - John Donne |

thankyou sudhir ... I was sort of hoping that it may bring a clearer understanding to good advice given to those about to embark on a venture that has been embarked upon countless times before ... many ... understand nothing but their own way But that's fine ... we can also learn through failure |

Rex, I love the timeless feel to your words here. Very wisely put and very creatively crafted, my friend. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Claire ... thankyou ... your kind words mean a lot to me Nan ... I read "Percipience" ... needed to look up a couple points but yes you're right there is a similarity ... they merely approach from a different perspective Balladeer ... not too many messages could surprise the experience I'm sure you possess Thanks for your kind reply |
