An Invitation For A Sad Beloved Poem by RIC BASTASA

The world has so many
things to offer
so many friends to
share fun with
so many places to visit
so many books to read
memories to cherish
mysteries deep in the forest
unexplored oceans to dare with
wild runs on the vast plains
views on top of the mountains
cottages to stay on the hills
grasses so green so thick to lay
our bodies to rest
warmth under the mellowing softness
of the morning sunshine

so why be sad my dearest?
why worry about what is yet to come?

come, come, i have two horses in my farm
let us have our rides, and have more fun!
