The Time of Ages

The Time of Ages The time of ages youthful strength to surge and vent and venture further The time of ages mature themes continue on and venture further the time of ages seniors question life or death and venture further the time of ages leave a lasting legacy to venture further Multiple Haikus Poetry Contest Sponsored by Jamie Pen July 23, 2019 At this stage of my life my mind flashbacks to the past of my fearless youth and how later years kept in context with all my responsibilities. When my father was alive I should have asked him more questions of his life when he arrived from Italy. Now I’m more aware of my vunerabilities and I decided to write a journal, draw, paint ( I was an artist ) and write poetry. This will be my final legacy.

You might not have asked your father far more questions than you wanted, but he is your guardian angel, and he approves so lovingly and absolutely with the legacy you are leaving behind Ralph! Hugs, Jennifer.
