A response to tombir's JUST THINK




A while ago, tombir posted this poem by Robert W Service.

JUST THINK

Just think some nights the stars will gleam
Upon a cold gray stone
And trace a name with silver beam
And lo! twill be your own.

That night is spreading on to greet
Your epitaphic rhyme
Your life is but a little beat
Within the heart of Time.

A little gain, a little pain
A laugh lest you may moan
A little blame, a little fame
A star-gleam on a stone.

I like this poem and hence my response:

JUST TALES

The morning rays so warm and bright
Embrace the silent stone
And bring the hidden tales to light-
The tales you know alone.

The brightest day, the darkest storm
That you have rambled through;
Your wildest dreams, the breaks from norm-
Unknown to all but you.

A little love, a little fun,
The tears left strewn behind;
A little laugh and then there's none
Except a stone that's grimed.

Lee


Live today as if it is your last
For tomorrow will soon be in the past

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.
