Last by Barbara Goodhew

Things we remember are last

Like The Last Supper.
The Last of the Mohicans.
The Last days of summer.

So to be remembered.

Be last like,
The last of the nice guys.
The last of the kind and generous.

If everyone thinks they might be the last.
Then everyone will be nice, kind and generous,
Thinking they could be remembered for being
the last one.

So I guess to be first, you have to be last.

Never Last
I've always been last in line,
Not wanting to be lat but I take my time,
I do not want to rush, Esp those quality moments of life that no camra can capture,
Only your memories keep them for playback.
To be shy as I mostly am,
To be quiet unless with words,
To be the first to make a move ,
this Im not so I guess in the nicest way I'm forever last.
good choice of words Barbara

In Being Last You See
For us that are last,
We see so much that others go through so thank you for being first so I could learn,
You found the right one this time I hear,
But never as a friend would you let me near,
For I would have told you the things I knew,
But thank you for being first (again)
In being last now this I Know,
I have always been first,
The first one my friends would run to,
The first one who found patience,
The first one who'd understand,
The first one who always new love,

Hi Barb
So true -- we always remember things that happen last. You sometimes take more thought which makes you last... but that's a nice way to be remembered.
