Edwin Baldwin Poet Lyric

The Benjamin Button Effect

All my contemporaries care greatly about such things as self gain, and securing a spot in 
heaven; while I could care less about those sort of things. 


"No clever arrangement of bad eggs ever made a good omelet."
- C.S. Lewis

Carolyn Devonshire April 6, 2011 at 8:38 PM Self growth is more important to me than self gain, Edwin. I loved the "Benjamin Button" movie where time appeared to move backward through a man's life. I too dream about the splendor of childhood years. Thought-provoking poem, Edwin! Love, Carolyn
