There was a beginning Mostly I don’t remember Excitement or indifference Were prevailing factors Now it is over Life as known for so many years Destined and now have come to an end It was not and is not easy to grasp Wouldn’t this go on forever? It seemed so, though never tiring Compassion for others and Meeting needs here and In the community Never short of friends, but Sometimes suspect of a few It is part of my character I stumble a little in my mind Like walking and falling off balance How can what is be no more? Hours slipped into days and weeks Months and years are like yesterday I can go forward, only not here Walking away from everything I know And what I considered my own It is all temporal I have spoken of the soul many times Also of the mind and the heart A trinity in their own right Like faith, hope and love Now I must wave off the mundane Leave that of consequence to others Line up my mind, heart and soul Come to proper conclusions Know my own mortality, but Pray for longevity beyond my dreams Let me have enough time to do The things You have entrusted to me I have probably had the time But also know that I am human I have the propensity to waste some of it Maybe it is ego, but others sought my presence Who am I to disappoint Well it is time to go It has been very nice Stanski on June 28, 2020 ^
