Will I Be Missed?

 

 

.

I sometimes wonder if I’ll be missed at all when I’m gone,
We made lots of friends out there younger having big fun,
But most have gone on as other interests they did seek,
As I’m not sure many people will remember this old antique.

Will I Be Missed?

 

 

.

I know my family will remember me as I wrote my life story.
In my blog that will be out there on the Internet in all its glory.
But will I be missed a year or two after I am called away?
I still can’t help but wonder as I sit here thinking today.

My story was told before I got too old.

Most of our friends from the past we never see anymore,
As we haven’t done things with them in years, like before.
So we have lost track of many of them and drifted away.
And don’t even talk to them much now, I really must say.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I see some old friends from work at Walmart sometimes,
And say “hello, how are you, oh me I’m doing just fine.”
Making some small talk about families and the like,
Then we go on along, with just that small memory spike.

Most of the Mickey Mouse Gang, we not longer see,
One friend has had a bad stroke and is limited like me.
Two reside in heaven that we think about quite often,
Two now have Alsheimers and don’t know us from then.

The rest moved far away and don’t call much anymore,
As we live our own lives with different interests galore,
We had fun Gang reunions in past years that we held,
But there’s not many of us left blessed with good health.

We were all in the Rhythm Aces primarily for our kids sake,
Who are now all middle aged with families they did make,
So we have all drifted apart as the years have gone by,
And we don’t even call each other as we live on the fly.

We still stop by and see Linda and Gene of the Misques,
As we were so very close as we danced with that crew.
When we get together remembering the fun times we had,
We still get a natural high that always makes us very glad.

I guess we should all be thankful we are still very alive,
Even though we now are really unable to dance that jive.
Kind of struggling just to get around the old house,
Living there at home with our soul mate loving spouse.

I guess it really makes no difference if I will be missed,
As my life has been good and I have already been blessed,
And I can say, “we made a lot of good friends along the way,
That I still keep with me each and every one of my days.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

When I’m gone and those memories all fade away,
I’ll know I wrote mine all down and they are here to stay.
For others in my family to read and enjoy what I did,
And pass them on down to all their own new grandkids.

I feel like the old Hawg will not be forgotten.
