Mostly i would like to be remembered...

Mostly, I would like to be remembered
as someone who was passionate for life.
The days of unsought ecstasies are numbered,
however long we linger in the light.
I was one who cultivated wonder,
Less of one contented to explain,
Delighted by the promises of hunger,
Enduring for their joy the years of pain.
Gifts I had aplenty: Some I savored,
others sacrificed for others' needs.
Remember me as someone who was favored,
despite constraints, to tumble in the leads,
Ocean to what winds I could not be,
Nightrider through what worlds I could not see.

Mostly, I would like to be remembered
as someone who was passionate for life.
The days of unsought ecstasies are numbered,
however long we linger in the light............

The paradox called......Life

I knew I was meant to fly,

in the silken oranges of dawn....

but solid lumps of air... Alas!!

I knew I could dive in deeps,

and run as a free flowing current.

but subzero frozen lakes..... Alas!!

I knew I could walk the jungles,a

s the mighty lion himself.

but new found civilization....Alas!!

I knew I could die in peace,

and rest in the sombre quiets.

but the joys of life.... Alas!!
