The family plot proved a faulty scheme I have never been the burying kind My waking life no more real than my dream A butterfly chased with an open mind
I am just starting and starting to know That I mean to write if it takes all night To see how much I can possibly grow As long as it takes till I get it right
Some people say now I can take it slow They mean well they just fail to understand There is no certain milestone of success Along the long road to the promised land
So I will just keep wandering I guess Writing down things of interest I see Most of it very strange some of it true Of interest in any case to me
May it too be of interest to you This word water world I swim in and thrive At least we have something useful to do Since nobody gets out of here alive
I'll wander too and, in the end, as I've stated before; please scatter my ashes on a gentle zephyr over woodland and river. I shall watch from above and love it. Thank you, Stevie. Love and peace to you, my friend,
Regis

As we swim through life we all learn lessons, just as writing down all things of interest.
Well done.
Steven, I had to laugh at the end...a chuckle that leaves a lasting thought in question...saying, "Is it that I'm laughing from the write, or laughing toward the truth?" Great job and very thought provoking!
