Sad we all must Die
*
Author notes
It takes so long,
just to become wise and mature.
So sad all that is in a man`s mind must be lost,
to start over with the next generation, learning it all again.
Think of where Einstein would be
if he could just continue to accumulate knowledge.

I don't know which is worse... the mind that goes frail after living a long life or the fact that each generation ignores for the most part the wisdom of their elders... and we seem to live for naught!!! I hear ya!!! Thank-you for entering!

Remember kind poet the fall leaves
without the fall leaves the earth would have no nutrients
to make it through winter, unprotected, and vulnerable
to climate's and change that even the wisest forecaster
can not be predict with complete accuracy....as the
winds of nature and sea will do what they wish..not
asking permission from any human.
So cast your fallen leaves knowing you are protecting,
and feeding us with nutritiously!
much love,

But without death, life could not go on. It is sad that it takes all of us till we are old to become wise and apprechiate what we had. Lovely verse...~Sie
