Memories Of Ouray


Nothing about life is impossible,

 viewed while looking up

 

Nothing about death is reversible,

 viewed while looking down

 

All in between is contestable,

winds blow North and South

 

Nothing promised, nothing cursed

—the choice to laugh or frown

 

(Ouray Colorado: October, 1995)
