Two Poems below from my archives….
Don’t duplicate your memories
For they are in the past
Just look unto your future
Who knows how long it will last
For nothing that is memory
Is in your power to change
Its only in your future
That you can rearrange
For life is in the present
So live for all you see
Who knows how far you’ll travel
When you go there memory free.

NATURE SINGS
NATURE SINGS IN PURE DELIGHT
TO HERALD IN THE COMING NIGHT
WHILE OWLS PREPARE TO FEAST TIL DAWN
AND SLEEPY MICE IN CONCERT YAWN
THE CHILL OF DUSK INVADES THE DARK
WHILE BATS IN GUIDED FLIGHT S EMBARK
THE SUDDEN BUZZ OF MOTHS DESCENDS
AS ROUND THE BULBS THEY MEET THEIR ENDS
THE MOON IT PLAYS BEHIND EACH CLOUD
WHILE NIGHTIME BREEZES SING OUT LOUD
FOR WHERE AM I BUT LOST IN SLEEP
AND MISS THE HARVEST CLOUDS THAT WEEPS
THE STARS THAT GLIMMER IN VACANT SKIES
AND BADGERS SETT THAT COME ALIVE
FOR NONE CAN STIR ME FROM MY REST
AND I CAN’T HELP I’VE MISSED THE BEST
WHILE ROCKING IN MY CRADLE
Thought to Ponder- “Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.”-Lucy Maud Montgomery
