The Magician

Our next door neighbor was a
Kindly elderly man who told
Us he was a retired magician.
He would gladly come over
When invited for dinner. And
He would amaze our youngest
Daughter with magic tricks.
One evening he told us this
May be the last time he
Would be able to make it
Over–he had an incurable
Disease and would soon
Perform the ultimate
Disappearing act.

Passion

To accomplish anything in
Life it takes enthusiasm,
Drive or passion. All great
Things people have done
For the betterment of
Humanity have been done
By lone individuals who
Burned the midnight oil
Until they achieved the
Breakthrough that gave
Humanity a great gift.
