Passed Down to You*

Today I tell stories to my children,
As my Father and Mother told them to me.
It's an honor to pass down a Family Legacy.
I began to tell them about one particular day,
When I was about five or six....I'd say.
I remember just like it was yesterday.
My Family and I went for a long...long ride,
I kept asking them, "Are we there yet?"...
It came as not surprise.
Finally my Mom said, "we're here, we've arrived".
We walked into a place, it was sparsely lit inside.
Feeling a bit nervous, I asked her where are we....we....we?
I stopped dead in my track,
With my Father right beside me all the way.
"Who's that repeating everything I say....say....say?"
My Day told me I would learn something new today.
He said, "what you hear are called Echoes!
We're deep inside a cave.....
They repeat everything you say."
I really did learn something something new.
Caves are like some people too...
Now I've passed this on to you.
Live and Learn!

a purely glorius thing, to pass legacies. we all, each and every one of us,have something positive to offer to the children of the world. if not the memories of life, surely our love. we should pass it along as soon as we are able.excellent job.
many thanks for sharing |
