Death and Remembering

I've stumbled into this present moment in time, Where tears won't come for those long passed. For in stillness they lie, being long past knowing, Once loved in fullness, now faint memories last. For a sunset will descend upon each life entirely, Cherish together time, before your finality is cast. Expending innermost thoughts on others this day, Love friends in the moment as were it your last.

A nice poem on remembering the dead. at one time or another we all lose someone we love - wheather it's family or friends. We have to treasure the moments we spend with them when they are alive. Thanks for sharing... Lucilla

Learn from past friendships; on how to enjoy those today. Keeping it simple, but followed by finer moments.
