I have mixed feelings about the concept of graves. I really believe that our deceased loved ones (in spirit) aren\'t there, although it is comforting for people, to have a place to go and talk. I just feel better thinking that their spirit is off doing what they want. Hope that doesn\'t sound silly, but it helps me cope...:)

Thanks for the comments and interest. I have been pleasantly surprised to finally harvest my own bananas from \"trees\" I planted years ago. Each year prior to this the frost kills the crop before maturity. I now have 2 complete stalks each with a dozen or so hands of bananas that will ripen slowly in my barn over the next month. ( cut the stalk green and hang it in a warm dry place ) Hugs.

VITALITY is an elusive concept \"A\" but for me it MUST begin in the morning ! I rise about 6:30 am ~ I live and sleep alone (most nights !) so i can set my own MANTRAS ! Pray to my Creator first ~ Then shower and shave after about ten minutes exercise. Breakfast at 7pm always Banana (in honor of my Simian forbears) Toast with marmalade and a small coffee and a l;rage glass of milk ! I\'m too young to be on any medication and I NEVER take supplements ! Listen to news read paper ~ \'til 7:45 am then a short walk in the grounds I live in a apartment block. I leave for work @ 8pm BIKE in SPRING ~ SUMMER ~ AUTUMN ~ Car in Winter ! This simple regime maintains my vitality but I do have massages and a swim at Work (a College) I\'m 5\' 11\" and maintain my weight (important !) at about 175 pounds ~ OK I lke to keep young and keep vital ! Yours BRIAN

Wow Augustus. I love how you touched upon those things you mention in your author\'s comment. This poem reminds me of the good and bad days you say you have. Can you write one about your good days in comparison?
