"...and when my time to die comes you will know that I was here"


Poem Artwork

Transcendental Sonnet #1172:
I Was Here

I mean to say just what I mean
Not to be silenced nor ashamed
Seeing I might as well be seen

Being myself and being named
Better to mean just what I say
Than to regret what might have been

Being credited being blamed
Is better than fading away
The memory that I was here
These words I write for you today

I do not mean to disappear
I would not be forgotten by
This world and when my time to die
Comes you will know that I was here

Wonderful Steve,
I enjoyed reading this piece, very much.
Not only for these beautiful sentiments,
but for personal reasons as well.

Love, Bonnie

P.S. Steve, if you don't mind a little suggestion.
It may be an oversight on your part.
Consider editing the last 3 lines, so they'll
flow better for the reader.
