Treasure Trove

 

I sit here and contemplate all the

places, all the scenes, all the faces

I have seen and experienced over

nearly the past seventy-five years.

Some images are more clear than

others. Some have names to be

readily recalled; others have

names which over time and in

the descending fog of my old age

have slipped away.

Thank God, I have photographs

of many people and places I have

taken. Mighty glad I did.

For now, confined by my waning

and disabling physical condition,

I am set free emotionally to roam

again openly, and gleefully sift

through the Wondrous Treasure

Trove of My Lifetime Creation.
