We live our lives to depths of heart and mind Our voyage 'cross these seas of life, to death And grandest of the things we give to breath Those precious moments we spend being kind. ~ 1st Place ~ in the "Kind Ink" Poetry Contest, Charles Messina, Judge & Sponsor.

Bard, I always marvel at your way with words. Taking a commonplace thought and converting it to a jewel for the ages. ~ John
