My first thought at seeing this weeks Magpie photo prompt (below) was "There's always room for Jell-O". I then read the sentence under the photo.... "a grave in the Novodevichy Cemetery, Moscow" No room for Jell-O there. As sweet and non-filling as it is... ~ you can't take it with you that's a bone hard fact but you certainly can leave a little something for dessert behind... a gift to the world a memento a trinket or two of your time spent here on this rock. what would you leave your jewels your words your mother's eyes your father's voice what would you give to a world that held you ~ a deep fear of mine is leaving you alone behind worse than that is you leaving me before your time ~ Ahhh life. How's it going so far? Like my friend Braja reminds me Don't forget to laugh Rene ~ February 2012 For Magpie Tales "a grave in the Novodevichy Cemetery, Moscow"
