Illusions of life and after

Beware! This ain’t a parody of skepticism,

This ain’t a pain of longing,

Is it an illusion that I’ll be remembered after I’m gone,

Maybe for a day or two or a year in the immediate circle, perhaps?

They aren’t to be blamed for neglecting-

Life rests for none,

Sun rises and sets same as before,

I’m but a bridge to be crossed over,

Is it an illusion that I’ll be remembered after I’m gone,

Time and people move on,

Sometimes long before I’m gone!

Here’s a conversation for a prompt.

Person A : How many children do you have?

Person B : Biological, spiritual, emotional or legal?

Think about how your being, your thoughts multiply in the universe. Write about your children and how do they make you happy. Mull over what else can you acquire or create to leave a legacy.

Do you want to be remembered after you’re gone and how?

Thank you Sadje for hosting What do you see challenge #163. The above picture is the prompt. Thank you all for stopping by and reading.
