My Journals

Lines to fill
As pages turn
Hopes and dreams
Lessons to learn

Words of joy
And some of sorrow
Days gone by
And yet, tomorrow

Tell a tale
Recall a time
Be direct
Or wax sublime

Dream a dream
Wish for more
Set your sights on
An open door

Add to my pages
The meaning of life
The sunshine - the glory
Forget all the strife

Enjoying each moment
For all that it's worth
Filling each section
With gaeity and mirth

Feeling the pleasure
Right to the bone
Like being a kid
With a huge ice cream cone

Piling up memories
Happy not sad
Remembering the good times
Ignoring the bad
