The things we learn to love
Born of sorrow, sometimes
Longing, for what has gone away, never to return
Decide, I decided
Let go, as the Sage said
Learn to love anew
Here we sit excitedly
Free cookies!
Average age of “we’ll-never-tell”
Scratching our thinning crowns
Picking crumbs out of our aged cleavage
Just happy to be together, talking too loud
For our hearing is aided, these days
History and legacy
Is key
Untouchable from on high
Come from the edge of space
Mock me at Mach 3
Leave your fingerprints everywhere
Your stealthy bones, museum-bound
Your legacy, my tale to spin!
…and reflections, tending to reveal truths
Could scare the daylights out of you at times
Or, cause you to walk away angry, and in denial
Today, though, a blessing
I saw myself in the mirrors of another, and fell
Now, on my knees, expectant
With blessings, indeed

The things we learn to love
Conclusions
Sugar, speak
In that small venue
I have discovered
Why, along the way
Here we sit excitedly
Untouchable from on high
…and reflections, tending to reveal truths
