It is spring and my thoughts have turned to traveling


Viewers


It is spring and my thoughts have turned to traveling..

That is what my retirement dreams are about ..

What's the use of setting in your apartment by yourself...

But I have a lot of details to take care of ..before that happens

This is for real.. this is what dreams are made of

Determination and self respect..
 
and belief in your ability to make it happen

Robert was a kid

with a bad reputation

he got in trouble in life a lot

but his best friend, Lilly, (holding picture)

thought he was misunderstood. After Robert died, Lilly decided to step in

and do for him what he could never do for himself: tell people how great he was.

DEAR ANCESTOR




Your tombstone stands among the rest

Neglected and alone


The name and date are chiseled out

Rickey - Iron...



On polished marble stone


It reaches out to all who care


It is too late to mourn


You did not know that I exist


You died and I was born


Yet each of us are cells of you


In flesh and blood and bone


Our blood contracts and beats a pulse


Entirely not our own


Dear Ancestor, the place you filled


One hundred years ago


Spreads out among the ones you left


Who would have loved you so


I wonder if you lived and loved


I wonder if you knew


That someday I would find this spot



And come to visit you
