Quiet Corner

 

He sat alone in a quite corner of his room,


settled into a quiet corner of his brain,


soothing music playing, visions of


cattle grazing in green pastures,


blooming memories of people and


places, bygone days of goodness


and grief. All life is worth remembering


he believes. Without all his experiences,


where on Earth would he be? Disabilities,


old age and all considered, he feels fortunate


to be who and where he is—old and gray,


settled into the quiet corner in a life of


his own making. The sun, moon and stars,


the good green Earth, and the quiet twilight


of eternity often come to mind.
