The Rest
It would be nice, to hear that voice,
That calm embrace, just mellowed so,
Repeat once more some details, now obscure,
And meaningless, until he lets us know,
Until he tells us in that special way,
With pregnant pauses now and then,
For profit, and for drama, and,
With a smile in his voice resumes again,
To tell us what it is he's come to know,
Whether in some vain pursuit for glory,
Or just the way Life is, and goes,
To tell us a story, and the rest of the story.

Very nice, Dolly. We will miss that voice calmly saying “and now the rest of the story”.
Did Wheelbarrow arrive at his destination safely?

It's so hard to say good bye to this wonderful man whose life enriched ours so much.
Good job on the poem Bob.
Dolly, I prayed for Wheelbarrow and hope he got a warm room last night to weather the storm in.
