So this is what's happening...

Reflections of the present concerns, projects and thoughts of Sarah and Yew Tree


Ask me anything

Legacy

I have made no secret of

My wish for immortality,

My desire to suck each possibility,

Each aspect of life dry.

 

The certainty of that dark end

Casts insistent shadows on life’s light,

That stalker we must all accept

Follows ever loyal and constant.

 

Yet, despite acceptance of this wraith

There remains a glimpse of hope,

Some comfort in projected loss

That fills the expected emptiness.

 

Hope that within words spoken

Or words I have mindfully written

When no longer substantial, I’ll remain

In memories and through marks on paper.

 

I’d offer words of comfort to those I loved

Those precious, held in high regard,

To support and nurture in my absence

As I strove to when with life was blessed.
