Ralph Sergi Poet Free verse

41 Years 2007

41 Years 2007

Now more than ever the past engulfs me

as time is  closing in and the  memory 
is fleeting

but I’m still not ready for that final meeting

To dream more often and to wish for the best

So here we are at this stage of our lives

combating isolation  and to flow with the rest

we should try to be happy  in lieu  of  being sad or mad

the clock is ticking faster and time is now our master

just try and remember the good times

Jan Allison May 18, 2018 at 2:35 AM After 41 years of marriage I am sure you have many memories ...although they do fade over time with the aging process:-( The older I get I appreciate every moment we have - my hubbies cancer really has been an eye opener in so many ways. :-) hugs jan xx Ralph Sergi May 18, 2018 at 7:38 AM Thank you, Jan: I will say a prayer for you and your hubby.
