In Good Company

longevity... a natural proclivity of the mind the want... the desire to live a long... prosperous life basking in rays of sunshine... though even in the midst of life's strife's we dig our heels in and deal with life's spills... in hushed awareness we know one day the curtain will close our sun will set in our medley of daffodils ... life as we know it will end but until then... we build relationships that bring us love and laughter we try not to think about the day we will transition to the here-after... the gift of longevity is such a blessed and beautiful thing by the same token an emotional sting... as we witness family and friends one by one lives set with the sun... I look around and so many have gone on at times bitter-sweet thoughts of all the love shared revisited in my muse alone... in my heart I know if my loved ones and family could just speak to me once more when my spirit is low ... my heart sore... their message would water my soul like a gentle rain lovingly etching; "let not our passing cause you too much pain"... live...love and laugh with a vengeance! my friend... my family and when it's time for your sunset; you will be in Good Company...
