We Won'T Live Forever Time Limited Offer To Dave

I wish we could sit in a soft field of flowers and bask in the sun on our faces-I'd do it alone and think of you and what you would say in the inspiritational message- the sharing in the simplicity, in the humaness of the moment-in the sheer joy to be in a warm place---safe for a moment. I can set up the scene, the characters, the dialogue, We will not live forever, Lost time in a debit, account held against small core savings. In the end will it be "enough" that we--I -tried? Will there be credit for the tenacity? Or are we selling finely carved and cheap plastic security? (Written by my Ex wife sometime during our 36 yr relationship.)

A poem that looks simple from a distance. Questions that beg for answers. l went through the poem and discovered that its depth and scope called for another reading. Dave, good piece.
