The Dash
* by Linda Ellis
I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on her tombstone.
From the beginning to the end.
He noted that first came the date of her birth
and spoke of the following date with tears,
but he said that what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.
For, that dash represents all the time
that she spent alive on earth
and now only those who loved her
know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own;
the cars, the house, the cash,
what matters is how we live and love.
And how we spend our dash!
In Memoriam
In Memory of Martine (November 29, 1959 - April 28, 2008), whom I never met but was very much shaken with her decease!

Ladies, gentlemen ... I arranged the colours so that it gives the variation floss effect. The chart is monochrome. However, you won't be able to click and get it anymore :) I had to set this new system due to heavy traffic to my page which significantly slows it down for potential buyers. I know, because I received comments. Can you imagine this humble page of mine had over 21,000 visitors last month? I am sure most of it is the frequent enthusiasts periodically checking to see if newbies are here :) The new game will set you free from constantly checking the page, thus availing the page to run smoother with easier access ... If you like the beauty above, kindly e-mail me and I shall collect your data and within a short period of time, shall be providing you with the chart :) This will also continue with every new freebie that I may post here, meaning you will comfortably receive them as soon as they are launched ... I am sure you will understand the reasoning ... Thank you so much for all the devotion!
A bit of colour to our monochromous lives
