grabbing stuff from beltways with the Johnnieman

[woodsmoke]

Life is brief.
fall in love
before the crimson bloom
fades
before the tides of passion
cool within you,
for those of you
who know no tomorrow

life is brief
fall in love,
before Charon's hands
take up his boat
before the bones of his face befalls uyo
for those of you
who will never return here

life is brief
fall in love,
before Charuns boat drifts away
on the waves
before the hand resting on your shoulder
beckonin the coin...befor
your hand
becomes frail
for those who will never
be seen here again

life is brief
fall in love,
before your tresses
begin to fade
before the flame in your hearts
flicker and die
for those to whom today
will never return

walk down

and by a beer for the Johnnieman

and jmp ontp thebeltways...

beforeyou fade away

beforeyou fade waay...

Indeed, Woody!
At 75, I've had several social interactions which, at the time, I didn't know would be the last ever for that individual.
Never leave mad, never discourage, don't be discouraged. Everyone is human and makes mistakes.
