Rushing briskly with melodies of memories left, gliding above the fountainhead of dreams less served, a calling must be heard above the clatter of endlessness. Shadowed shelter, granted through abiding confidence, manifests its permanence with clarity and purposeful chorus. Because of what I am and what I have done, I am and will always be granted significance. No matter my apparition, my thoughts are indelible. My biography will endure in what I have left to seed. As the soil becomes my residence, I pray I impart animation to its roots. 06/20/2018

As Plotonius (in Hamlet) might say: More modesty and less art, Charlie. My will stipulates, no eulogy, no prayers, no music. Cast my ashes and let them fall where they may. Many thanks for stopping by / M

You do, Charlie; the spirit goes on through the fruitful thoughts we leave behind. From what I can see here, you have planted great seeds, and rooted in the fertile eternity.

My dear friend, I'm happy for you since you believe that your image, your thoughts, and your biography are granted significance. I, on the other hand, realized that I came, I lived and I will be gone soon. A microscopic bubble will burst in the ocean of life, and I become the soil...

Those "dreams less served" may be our most unique legacies, Charlies. Your writing style is provocative and filled with thoughts that generate strong feelings in the reader. A fave for me, Carolyn
