Estate Sale Look at them, a parade of souls pawing at my stuff. I've lived my life creating ease, gathering stuff. Elise left, then my son Robert. Only I was left, and stuff. Now all these strangers gawk and paw, paying a pittance for my stuff. Is this all that's left? Is my only memory, my whole lifetime reduced to stuff? Could I do it again, I'd spend more time creating memories, and gathering friends, than stuff. Dallas D'Angelo-Gary 98

Excellent poem, capped off with the final verse, it could not be more fitting.

Such a hard lesson to learn. We find love, understanding and friendship through family and friends, material "things" well, they come and go....

Be always safe,
Karen

Sadness in these lines, too much of this going on in these troubled times. Very well penned, Dallas.

EXCELLENT...IT IS BETTER TO STORE UP TREASURES FOR THE KINGDOM WHICH IS ETERNAL...THAN EARTHEN TREASURES WHICH PASS AWAY. WONDERFULLY UNIQUE WRITE, IN WHICH YOUR CLEAR IMAGERY DEPICTS A DEPARTED ONE LOOKING DOWN AND REGRETTING THAT HE DID NOT ACQUIRE MORE THINGS THAT PLEASE THE MIND AND LESS THINGS THAT PLEASE THE EYES. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS. JOYCE
