My daughter gave me last Christmas a subscription for Storyworth, for the purpose of documenting stories about my life’s journey. I used the site prompts to document related poetry with explanations. This is the last entry.
To believe a-history of me
Is meaningful or prescient
To a world beyond screens
Of my life story
As recalled through events
Of my creative writing odyssey
As I satisfy each prompt sent
Of a request of import for legacy
By those who sense a need
Of validation of my journey
To create a recollected seed
Where comfort is not in accolades
Comfort is not in well meant words
Comfort is not in passionate tirades
Comfort is not in trite verbs
Time is the ultimate matchmaker
Of a last statement on a past
Colored by dramatic failures
Colored by emphatic broadcasts
Where the final partner
Is a feeling of peace
Resulting from a started
Quest to create healing keepsakes
For promises to those I love
Is given a sense of closure
For all accents of the dove
Where tranquility is my final partner

A History of Me
I am not so self importantTo believe a-history of me
Is meaningful or prescient
To a world beyond screens
Of my life story
As recalled through events
Of my creative writing odyssey
As I satisfy each prompt sent
Of a request of import for legacy
By those who sense a need
Of validation of my journey
To create a recollected seed
Where comfort is not in accolades
Comfort is not in well meant words
Comfort is not in passionate tirades
Comfort is not in trite verbs
Time is the ultimate matchmaker
Of a last statement on a past
Colored by dramatic failures
Colored by emphatic broadcasts
Where the final partner
Is a feeling of peace
Resulting from a started
Quest to create healing keepsakes
For promises to those I love
Is given a sense of closure
For all accents of the dove
Where tranquility is my final partner
