October 11,  2017


GOING,  GOING,  GONE 

Autumn leaves 
fade and fall ....
Skin wrinkles ....
The sun rises ....
The sun sets ....
Everything seems easy
till we have to do it ....
We’re handed the menu ....
We enjoy the meal and the company ....
We’re handed the bill ....
Life: we fall in love;
we have a family;
they leave to start a family;
my spouse dies.
Life:  cribs till caskets 
and the great in between ....
Life: chocolate milk shakes ....
I love those pulling slurps
and then the long slide into God,
please God.
