Bittersweet. Old is definately gold in this nostalgic poem. Some faces we will miss for the rest of our lives.10, of course. Warm regards, Sandra
Wonderfully told... we all go through this sad phase of noticing missing old faces...especially in Churches, parks and other public places..Lovely poem Andrew..10+
That is a lovely thought Andrew, and I know what you mean, so many people have passed on that seemed to be part of ones life, even though they were not there all the time. Life moves on, death moves on, time moves on, but memory stays, which is so good. love and hugs Ernestine XXX
Fascinating poem Andy, in every sense of the word. And as Lynda says, eventually WE become - the old faces.. Thank you for sharing this poetic masterpiece! ! *10*! ! Best always, Friend Thad
Andy, you have a wonderful heart that allows you to see things so clearly, old faces are a comfort and when they are gone we eventually become the old faces, and so life goes on, excellent write my friend, 10 Lynda xx

People are forever disappearing, gone from our view and somehow sadly missed. Why do we appreciate all these confidants when they are passed and gone when we should appreciate them whilst they are alive to us.
