We loved your ample bosoms,
Dear Grandmothers,
So soft and pillow-like;
The perfect place to lay sleepy heads.

We loved your voluminous laps,
Dear Grannies,
Wrapped in yards of cotton;
The perfect place to rest teary faces.

We loved your full long dresses,
Dear mothers of our parents,
In lengths well past your knees;
The perfect place to hide a shy child.

People die.
But their stories live on in the hearts of those
who had loved them.
Like the fire which has burned out.
But the ashes still remaining.

The memories wiped out
after years pass by,
Like the ashes swept
Away by the wind.

Yet the trees, the sky, the sun,
They all remain witness
to the life that was once lived
to the laughter and tears it shed.

Immortal therefore to nature,
Is the fickle human soul,
It lives on forever,
Witnessed by the sun, moon and stars-though ages may roll.
Maturity begins
when you can be proven wrong
without feeling like you've lost.

you've got city roads on your eyelids
you've got wanderlust in your soul

i've got maps on my palm
i've got gypsy in my blood

we're getting out of this dump
we've got wonder in our veins
an almost toast to being california bound in 2016 with my best ******* friend.

No escalators to heaven , no free rides .
Just one long hard climb , one step at a time .
