Autograph Book

When the name that I write here
Is dim on the page
And the leaves of your album
Are yellow with age,
Still think of me kindly
And do not forget
That wherever I am
I remember you yet.

It's hard to think of a time when people only shared a short time of their life with each other. Friends were for a season. People had to move on and work hard. Without telephone or even timely mail people would struggle to hear from family. Autograph books were a good way to keep a piece of your loved ones with you. I think I might make one for myself since it is my goal to work as hard as possible and live the life of a total recluse. lol
