Evidence

Will there be a day when my words disappear? Deep in my mind that is my greatest fear Words that I write give me distraction Opening new worlds is their attraction I breath in thoughts, exhale them to the page Rewarded with poem, my gift and my wage How would life be without this special gift? What would I do for my spirit to lift? Sometimes I wonder, if these words are mine Happy with connection to the Devine So while I have them, happy will I be Greater perspective, gift that sets me free Daily prayer, words upon a lonely stage Expressed in pictures, words written on a page If they are read, they will not dissapear They will be evidence, that I was here

You will be the unforgettable friend for many of us, don't worry, dear Rick! Today, I chose this special poem because it has been written on a very special day; the birth day of my very first grand-daughter, Maëlle! She will be happy to learn Englsh with this very special blessed poem... Love, Hanitra

A worthwhile legacy for sure, Richard. It's just my imagination, but I believe that each word we speak travels the universe into infinity...it can never be taken back! I may have written a poem when the thought came to me. Another one of your lovely poems!
