Family

Now that I'm on in years I begin to savor all I have tasted The past the worst of my fears All the moments I have wasted Bitter the taste of tears In addittion, to those I abated Closer those still near All our hearts related

So much truth in your words. I'm a little confused about the second word in the sixth line. Was it meant to be like that for emphasis? Congratulations on having your poem featured. Keep on writing! Karen
