Looking Back.

Goldfinch60



Reaching that certain age,

That certain age where life,

Where my life, is behind me.

I look back,

Look back at those people,

Those people I met.

I remember some of the words,

The words spoken between us,

But on looking back I realise,

Realise that more could have been said.

Words that could be so meaningful.

 

So before you reach that age,

That age where most of your life

Is there behind you,

Take that opportunity

To converse more meaningfully

To those people in your life,

Before it is too late.

    A fine write Gold. Oh woe, why is it too late for me? It all began in 1066, and went downhill from then on.

      Thanks Orchi. Before 1066 though we had some wonderful times with our pet dinosaurs.

          It is my worst nightmare, to regret the past or lack thereof. Poetry will welcome your unspoken words and thus never wil be too late.

          • Goldfinch60

            Much appreciated Chris.
