When the suitcase is packed with life's memories Kindness, care and love that has made an indelible impression A breath of peace of mind with the smell of spring harmonious - as a colorful summer meadow But the earth froze overnight and you touched the flower before the eternal wither in silent storm fought and suffered The final journey no one is promised tomorrow R.I.P.

Thanks for sharing this... Meanwhile, by God's grace, I greet you with the peace and joy of Christmas toward a prosperous New Year along this present: "the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23 of the King James Bible). God bless you.

Beautiful - gentle tribute Anne-Lise...short story... I'm smiling, I would totally disagree with a position Milt would take in a write, then brace myself for a backlash that would never come! such a cool cat... he'd say "James, look at it from this perspective..." I listened & agreed the majority of the time, I thanked him for his grace & respect, he would say discourse creates growth, in other words love one another...

Anne-Lise, Very nice in tribute, the promise in your goodbye endures. “And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.” -Wizard of Oz
