 Irene's Treasure - Echoes of My Heart

The Autumn Of My Earthly Years


Photobucket
 

I sit alone, yet surrounded by a crowd
I live alone in my quiet, dignified world
In the glorious Autumn of my earthly years
The winds of time ruffle my silver curls

As the leaves of Life change their amber tints
I wait patiently humming the tune of my song
My dreams parade in a single line in my mind
They tumble haphazardly, meandering along

The time has come.....the Autumn of my earthly years

       Note:
I suffered a stroke on Sept. 21/01.
I fell into an 8 weeks coma in which I had an
out of the body experience (OBE).  
It was sad to return to this cruel world.
I am no longer the same.
