So many moments reflecting

Refracting so many experiences.

The lenses of time’s, evolutionary passing

have become moments of history pressing,

pressing upon one’s memories hoard

within which all has been stored.

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

These memories, lucid, will remain

until more adventures come again

to enliven one to never ever refrain

from moments gone, bringing pain.

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

Memories will enlighten, until I depart

this plane. A journey towards a new start.

Touching the moments You, created for me,

brought your essence, your soul for me to see.

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

Thirty five days, three hundred hours

spent on so many of my days, it towers

above a thousand 3 and ½ by five prints

that illustrates the stories, fabulous hints.

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

Looking into the many adventures, the reminiscence 

of my Beautiful, Daughters, Love, Family presence

that helped make up so many of my nights and days.

For this journey, these adventures to live again, one prays

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

The last image these tired, old, brown eyes  got to see

was my Daughter Gail, hand in the air waving goodbye to me

as I entered the metal body of this giant silver bird

echoing in my ears the voice and every word I heard.

There has become this void !!!

Reminiscing may help to avoid.

The curtain, soon will be coming down upon this play

so that I may then begin to experience a normal day

were thoughts of my Beautiful Daughters, Love

is not fused with all the work I will soon rise above.
