Time to Recall and Amend

                      Time to Recall and Amend

 

      Silently waiting forgiveness for transgressions

 

      committed in daily routine one regrets not

 

      death in itself just the shame of pain one inflicts

 

                               upon others.

 

     Reflect on improving respectful behavior

 

     toward all especially oneself. Time crawls to a

 

     halt and life ends quicker than one anticipates.

 

                                Must be ready.

great topic

Nice poem. It touches on several aspects of preparing for death. Yesterday, I wrote "Just Live It" around the same topic. It's my perspective at age 31, which I'm interested to see how it will change over the years. Hopefully over many many more years, for all of us.

Death

Joe,
I have a few years on you. lol and I am still here waiting. Came close to death in 1986 and since then I have been preparing myself. Thank you for your reply. Linda

Time

Dylan,

I realize I am late to say thank you for visiting and your comment. Yes, I am still here. Was without a computer for a long time; now, I am back. Linda
