Contemplating








               Contemplating, 
               contemplating....
               Sounds so very
               like me!
               Trying to add up 
               life's wondrous 
               configurations?
               In my minuscule, 
               mental nation!
               After many decades, 
               my mind is so very 
               tired.
               Still won't get it...
               till a stamp on my 
               head that reads, 
               "Expired!"

Enjoy life's wondrous configurations. We all have our own mental nation. I don't see yours being minuscule from the writings you produce. Relax and enjoy. . . .

Madelyn..would that I were as good as you claim.)) I hardly am conceited, Great. People are so humble. Arrogant ones blow their own horns and show off like crazy but do nothing for their fellow man outside of belittle them. There is a word for that, cannot use here. Of course! We are are all legends in our own minds! What are configurations.. email me.please. I am not impressed by my own puny poetry,az))) Pangie

Dont worry, you're not alone, we'll all reach the end of our shelf life one day. We just have to make the best of it whilst we're here. Tom

I am not worried about dying. I am way too busy thinking about life.i do not worry! Concerned about others... yes. Pray for the people maimed, dead, or about to be, while our top executives in DC, gave the finger to the ME and vacation. Where is the outrage here? In absentia? Yes! Panagiota.
