Sad Times' Fleeting Joy
How's it I didn't see
The road ahead of me
My sad times' fleeting joy
Abruptly coming to...
END!

Thank you very much, Rose Marie and Savita for the 5 Stars!
A heart touching expression of life's experience. It resonates with all. Very few wants to talk or admit the gloomy side of life.
So very true Savita! And as one gets older, it's that much more difficult! And I'm greatly saddened that Jack Kerouac had died so young!
Life's joy and sadness are just ephemeral. Death comes unexpectedly and in God's own time. Yet, our good works and words can defy our death. They will be remembered. So deeply poignant and touching words. It cuts through the heart. Magnificent series as always, Richard.
Rose Marie, not only do you write magnificent poetry, but also, commentary that is so very insightful, inspirational and motivational! A World Of Thanks, Poetess Friend!
