No Regrets -W

When I look back to the past, I feel I have drank the cup of Life fullest to its brim. I have taken life as it came, Knowing this to be the only life, Like a dress rehearsal of a drama. I have seen lands and countries, Met people of different cultures, Thus enjoying the god’s bounty. I have received the fullest love, From the women I loved & cared And from the women who loved me. From my children & grandchildren, Never expected to live to see, yet got it, All the good things of life. I have taken life as it came to me, And have never questioned God's territories My muse has been always activated. ============================ Fifth Placement For contest : Tell me about you

Life has many lessons, pleasures and joys DR. Ram I am glad you have lived yours to the fullest. Thank your for you gracious comments, always. Grits or Gritts, is a coarsely stone ground corn meal, with some hust left in it. It is a popular southern breakfast cereal, cooked like oatmeal, and sweeten with sugar. Kiss my Grits, is a southern nice way to say kiss the other end.Lol. It's is really rather good for breakfast. You can buy it in the supermarket. Agape, Moses
