Ray,

This was a very touching write and I could relate to this very much. Like you, I have a house stashed with souvenirs that only are valuable to me, things my son made me, little reminders of the past and they fill me with love and gratitude every time I look at them.
What becomes of them after we dissapear is of no importance, because they are only valuable to us, they STAND for something without having significance by themselves.
The only thing that will remain of you after you leave is the love you bestowed upon your people, so be sure to devote your time to that and as little as possible to lifeless objects or goals that do not serve love:)

*hugs*

My friend it is my hope and dream that, like in my poem gravity, our thought and memories will never fade away. They will exist for infinity. take your 5 objects and cherish them for they will be a key to the door of your living memories for ever.

great write, alot of feeling in there that can be appreciated. Good luck in your life and my it be full of wonderful memories.

Go and read a poem i wrote called

An angels touch.

Its not a deep poem and you wondered if I could write a good one that's not deep. I wonder too. So let me know.

You want another deep one that will make you think.... Read
If the answer was a man.

hint... I don't mean "men are the answer" I literally mean if the "the answer" was a man.

nice to meet you through this site
