People

I am 74
Moving yet
Again to a new
City and society
Back to Texas and
I recall my other moves
Sifting through photographs
Tossing most of them or gifting
Them to family and recall of
All that lifetime of photos
So few are of people so
Many of places land
Scapes Mountains
Beaches forest
Trails streams
But far too
Few of
People who
Should have been
My primary interest but
I did not realize it at the time.
How often we go through
Life aware of things but
Miss the people who
Are what matters.
Ironic I live alone
Now but miss
Companions
In solitude
Amid the
Relics of
My life
But
Still
Taking
Photos of
Landscapes
Seascapes Sky
Still believing a
Forest path is
The clearest
Way into
A starry
Universe.
