To Make Our Mark


     We strive mightily to make our mark 
         on planet earth

     I left mine on a sturdy oak tree’s bark
         gw + ia ~ my one and only since birth

Yep. Looking back lately, I wonder if I have done anything positive of lasting value? If not, it wasn't for lack of trying.
