Rest of my life in your presence.

Do you know the name of the author?
Angela: I had heard of this way of living. It seems to have been orderly. I like seeing this in print. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks, Karen. It is a cute, little poem that we can all follow.
Hi Cecelia,
This way of living belongs in a bygone era when life was much slower
but we can still follow the words of the poem. Thanks for stopping by.
