They say to be immortal we should have a child, plant a tree and write a poem. You wrote this well Maureen.

Well penned. I just found some of my Dad's war poetry. Just three poems hidden in a box of near forgotten treasures. Some stories will never be told and are shrouded in mystery. It would be interesting to write that ONE poem one wants to be remembered for and with. Wishes and wishes, Kai

Oh wow. What a find! Yeah, one can write it and have hopes for it, but it's the readers, the consumers of poetry who will decide. Sounds like the rest of life ;) only so much control. xomo!

You have discovered the meaning of life Maureen and it is words. You will leave a lasting legacy to be reread for many many generations.
