Tim Smith Poet Rhyme

Searching For Me

Slowly charcoaled clouds cover sunny skies
Peeked playful smiles turn to tear filled eyes
No more making memories
Time sure did fly on by

I think of your legacy and what you achieved
Lived life to the fullest and in God you believed
Helping out fellow man
Not worrying what accolades you received

A man's man, a truer friend there could ever be
Courage, compassion, finally set free
When my time comes
What will they think of me

Clouds part and the sun's rays enlightening my day
I put my heart and soul on display
My gift won't go to waste
For strength, for peace and for harmony I pray

Emile Pinet May 30, 2015 at 10:34 AM You poetically depict the end of a beloved friend's life and ponder on what legacy you will bequeath, after death has written the last word on your life's page. Emile. #7
