Write Your Lines 2
Sometimes there are people, places, and things we must revisit.
Some lines and letters of a pen, written with a need to re-edit,
are occasionally found difficult to rewrite or to erase. And even
If one succeeds in altering the lines, there will always be a trace.
This trace, even if invisible, will continue to render their permanency.
Like an oak, their roots are deep, and like a mountain their ascent is steep.
Like the indelible you, your lines cannot be erased and are here to stay.
So, go on being you. Make your mark and leave your lines beneath the
shadows of time. Set your own pace and don't make haste. But you owe
it to yourself and other mortals like you to finish the race.
