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

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

A lovely dedication, Tim. Thought-provoking too, you are right. When it's our time, what will those left behind say about us? As for you, I echo Richard's words. Kim
