LIFE ROAD

People who I knew as a kid have already done the big jump
They are not with us any longer
Reading their obituary is a rude wake up call for me
and yet the sadness this brings is not because they are gone to the big beyond
but because I only thought NOW
to see how they are
after fifty odd years i decide to look them up
so what kind of person am i doing this?

Like all of us I got busy with life
and forgot the ones who shared my life as a young child

Now its a bit late
Why God leaves some of us here and takes some of us is an unknown
but I know I will carefully make sure to write or call those whom I once knew and shared laughs with
Traveling along this life road is more than just scenery and photos
I want to visit too
