Where am I ?, Here now, walking by the long grass Following footsteps, paths worn into place Time no more than fleeting seconds Life this sentence of a story incomplete
The course of my being I cannot foretell Governed by fate, dandelion seed blown on the wind Perhaps today will be the last The final dawn to the destiny bell
When I am no longer, when body turns to dust If the room does not echo with the sound of my voice Do not grieve for me, though my vision be in shadow The strongest flood of tears cannot wash away a memory
As I have been touched, so will I touch My legacy the fragments left in the minds The passing is never truly a passing How can I die when I flame in your thoughts ?
When death takes your hand, leads you to the pasture Take it gladly, smile and walk into the moonlight No need to turn and look behind You have already left your footsteps

This is a very touching and a true poem. Lots of strong lines in it.....
This one is me fave:
How can I die when I flame in your thoughts ?
I think this is what they truly mean with, yer spirit still floating around on earth. People will never be forgotten cause there will always be at least one who remembers ya and who will keep yer memory alive.
Well done! Truly love this one.
huggssss,
Nats

Funny how I can hear that water sucking up in that green.. you know.. there is a lovely side to all of this. Not where our minds want to feel, to think, but our hearts, our souls, do not forget what we are made up of, and no, we are not to say, I am sorry.. but we are not going to be just .. only in pictures.. or books..

It is inevitable that we meet and leave impressions on those left behind thank goodness or it would be like never having been here. Some people go out of their way to impress...they really don't want you to forget them...This is a 5 pointer...can't figure those ratings ahead of me?????Your writing is articulated well, smooth and filled with true emotion. |
