An epitaph

Written
for when I go
to the land of no return.

Thank you
for being in my life.

For making flowers
bloom in my footsteps,
giving colour,
perfume to my mind.

Without you,
life would have been
dark and wilted.

Do not feel distressed
my time came.

I have not regretted
much.

Blessed with genes
that allowed me to express
my sense of existence:
in painting,
poetry,
and dance.

What more
can one wish for?

Thank you
from my heart.

Ann's love.

This I can leave behind me as an epitaph!

I have known for a while, Anni,and it breaks my heart

No wishes or desires this sorry soul speaks
Any longer
It’s all been said . I am done.
Useless twists and turns of the tongue
A language that brings us
farther away from who we are:
I am my father’s son.
I am my mother’s child

joe

so good to see you here...thoughts and prayers are with you...

So glad to see this and your picture on here. You hang it there and don't let the beasts win. I love this what you wrote to Ann

Useless twists and turns of the tongue
A language that brings us
farther away from who we are:
I am my father’s son.
I am my mother’s child

Useless twists and turns of the tongue

farther away from who we are..

So true so true. Joe thinking of you and been on my mind alot

Sorry Ann had to comment here to Joe..love you both

xoxo

Ann, whether now or a 20 years from now, you shall leave a trail of broken hearts. And
tears.

Your words waft across the wides to me and give me happiness to burst my heart.
Only today I peeped in after a while, it was thinking of our dear Joe that I was prompted to write my own thoughts to leave behind when people go through my things.

But I am game yet, ready for new challenges myself, far from the dark door of no return, life is for living while we are lucky enough to partake of it, and even more blessed to be without pain, the pain that others suffer, dear to us we give them oceans of our feelings of comfort that it may spread to all.

Thank you for being my friends, love to you all from Ann.
Anna I see your dandelion clock and it is whole yet may it stay so, only to seed for other generations to enjoy.

Well said, my Anni. I am right behind you.

Ever since I joined this site I always knew you were special indeed. Not just in the word pretty and special, but the person special. I love this about you and for also not getting your angers out on anyone here and being the blessed poet you are. Best of health and wishes to you my snow queen and friend from Norway. You are one of a kindred spirit.

Your spell like the moonbeams spreads smiles on all our faces, thank you. Ann xoxo

I have composed countless poems

As you know
Since I have no fixed mind ,
nor fixture of mind,
I am an unique entity...

No two poems of mine are alike,
as i believe in variety
Loved Style,
All my while .

I stand in no row or queue
of recognition ,
as I know twill never come,
when I am alive .

But then it will be too late
Posthumously
which they will.

"At a later time I will write of you and your ways, then that will mean a lot more than the words above."
I think I know what you mean, but have meant these words to all who have and will be my friends, hopefully all I meet. All deserve the benefit of the doubt in my view.
I feel what you mean, but in spite of that you do not approve of my views on life totally!!
I expect what you wrote was very fine too, they were lucky.

Love Ann.

Molto sympatico. Away on the other side of Florida where the Pacific ocean wafts the salt sea perfumes of shells and sea weeds. Love to you too Mona. Ann.
