Life is a limited edition
November 28th 2013
*********************************
The future as I saw it,
Smiled at the past,
Was I present in that moment?
Or temporarily lost.
**
The power to dream,
Many steps at a time,
Into the future today,
Where yesterday wasn’t lost.
**
Life is a limited edition,
Living beyond the past,
The abstract in the future,
Looks for a meaningful start.
