Dum Vivimus, Vivamus

Memories are the embers
that cool to ash
and the dust of the past, that drifts
on the wind of our wake.
While we live, let us live.

If a dream touches us, it exists to us as anything else that touches us.
John

well written, sometimes John it is hard to do the living, you know...this makes me think today as I have a  visit to make to the cemetery, maybe your message will come through to me there...and push me in the right direction
