Back At You! By Larry Chadwick There is an old axiom, About how life rebounds. It’s said ‘what goes around, Will come around.’ It’s funny how we find it true, Often when we least expect. Like the other day with my son, When he began to reflect. It seems I’ve reached that stage, Where I am doing better now. I had no idea that I had changed, So much since he’s grown up and how. But a little light came on, Of one generation back. When I told my dad how glad, I was that he was finally right on track. The stage of life and the speech, Were echoes in my mind. Seems I had that coming, And now I wonder what else I will find. January 22, 2002 |

![]() ![]() ![]() (big hugggsssssss) Oh my gosh, I know just how you feel, sweet friend, it seems in the cycle of life we are taught by our loved ones and then what goes around comes around when we pass on this legacy of love and wisdom to our generations to come! (sigh) Such a wonderful thought-provoking poem, sweet friend, your words always make me smile! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Larry, thank you for sharing! ![]() ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Larry darling boy are you fishing for compliment darling heart? You know I don’t consider you old, YOU certainly know that, as always this is pure quality writing. Utterly flawless execution again. Now I’m lucky I get to catch this early on. If when I return tomorrow it’s disappeared down the lists far too fast be sure I’ll rescue it. We can’t have the quality writing sinking too quickly. I wonder if I ought to have a little alert on my computer when the good stuff falls too quickly to come and rescue it. Oh well since I haven’t I’ll just have to pop in frequently. Now I’ve finished celebrating I’m available. Yes I was busy this last week, which is why you’ve only seen a little of me, but I’m back now. Why did you miss me? It is you know excellent writing ![]() ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Larry, good poem. It's possible that for you the blessing/curse is coming true. And the curse is "May you have children exactly like you." *HuGS* Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
