The Way of Us

 

Yesterday, we were larger than life itself ..

Today though, we are now gone

   and tomorrow shall become, just another memory ..

          • Bella Shepard

            The illusion of life is memory, without it we simply "are". This one hits a special spot, deeply felt. Great verse my friend!

            • Neville


              If I even got close to that special spot Bella then I consider my job extra well done .. bless you & hope you are now fully, or as near as damit recovered .. your mate ME 🙂

                      Someone's past, present, and future summed up in three lines. From full, to empty, to remembered. Insightful and wise. Much enjoyed. - Phil A.

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        I'm a nothing speck in eternity or infinity. Unremembered, unremarkable. But I've largely enjoyed this sliver of experience.
                        Thanks for this provocation, Neville.....

                        • Neville



                          Thank you Dave. Aren't we so very lucky eh' .. I know I am blessed & just want to share a bit of it .. Neville

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            And you did. Pity we don't know why.... but I'm afraid that's the nature of the beast...We're here because we're here....

                          • Thomas W Case

                            You create a mood here. Excellent work.

                                In time we are a mote of dust, a pin prick in an ocean sky.

                                While we are here we are memory builders. If we are lucky some of those may remain after we have left this plane. A short poem which is brimful of wisdom and meaning.

                                • Neville



                                  You are of course absolutely write. Thank you kindly Cassie.
