Carefully cast your eyes across the landscape of the past
Don't move too fast, or else you'll miss the hidden gems
Of all those moments when, your life told a story that should last
Catch those fables, lessons, legends and expressions of how you feel
Those slippery memory eels, that shape the way you are
The unconscious guiding stars, that map out everything you feel is real
Don't let your turn on this Earth become curtailed
Before you've fully unfurled your sail, and passed on the batten of what you've learnt
from your journey's many twists and turns, and before you've lived to tell the tale

Nice one. I think a lot of us older poets here try to pass on a bit of life's learning every now and then..... where it goes.... no one knows.
Brilliant!
