Charming exasperation


So half the readers like commenting in email( & can continue to do so) & the other half keep telling me to put comments back.  Ok, I'll try that again for a while.  My entry on Mother loss got the biggest response of anything I've ever posted.  Not because I wrote it so well, but because everyone has a Mom story in their heart.

    A little something I wrote that I thought you might enjoy reading.

                                   POSSESSIONS AND DUST

    I LOOK AT THE DUST FROM THE PAST
    AND REALIZE THAT ALL THAT IS MINE
    WILL SOON BE DUST ALSO.

    TO KNOW THAT WHAT WAS ONCE TREASURED
    SOON BECOMES VAGUE,
    AND SOON AFTER FORGOTTEN.

    POSSESSIONS ONCE CARED FOR LIE NEGLECTED.
    THEIR VALUE LOST WITH THEIR OWNERS.
    AND COVERED WITH DUST.

    TIS SAD, YET TRUE. TO LOOK AT THESE THINGS AND THINK,
    OF DREAMS AND TIMES THAT WERE,
    BUT ARE NO MORE.

    AND THE VALUE OF THESE THINGS AND THOUGHTS
    LIE IN THE THOUGHTS OF THOSE GONE, BUT STILL CARED FOR,
    AND NOT IN THEMSELVES.

    SO IT IS. SO IT WILL ALWAYS BE. AND TO MINE WILL COME IN TIME..

    POSSESSIONS AND DUST.

    I guess I don't care either way.  It's quicker to be able to respond here but not a big deal to do it via email.
