Slowly time passes
Without the anxiousness
Of youth to hinder
Thoughts of yesterday . . .
Now is the time
To look forward
With great expertise
For better tomorrows . . .
People come
Some linger
Others pass
Thoughts shared
Minds fantasize
What will tomorrow bring?
Yesterday's dreams are
Today's realities and
Tomorrow's regrets
Too often faced
By those unprepared
To face reality
Of possible sorrow
Through unfulfilled fantasies . . .
Time taken
To share
A common goal
Makes it easier
To satisfy The needs
We have
Alone . . .
-G.D. ASHCROFT
I found these Kodachrome enlargements & writings from the 70s when I was cleaning out my father's house. May his art & his lessons live on forever.
