I HAVE Earned It (poem) by Kathy Armijo on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on April 19, 2008

Yes you have earned them lines wrinkles, they
Are sadly all part of the aging process
we may see it as getting older
I love white hair on a man they look so distinguish!
And in a woman looks so beautiful
a women are like aged wine gets better with age!
The beauty of wisdom!
We have earned it I love your final stanza!
Brilliant write!!
Peace Love and Hugesss....Morning star

If we were dating I would have been arrested for robbing the crib you poor little thing that are feeling eighteen at... (a gentleman don't say it) but those wrinkles I bet are from thousand smiles and million of laughs.

Aging faces. That is where the lines of character show through. Not in the firm, smooth skin of youthful faces. After shaiving each morning I look into the mirror and muse. I run my fingers across sixty-five years of life's journeys in the lines of my aged face. I enjoyed working to make each and every one of them. A very excellent reminder of what lines and wrinkles really represent, character.

Amen! I am one of many who likes to grow old, and eventhough I'm 29 now, I still feel 19 inside, it's a wild feeling. Beautiful poem Kathy

I have earned my grey hairs too; I'm grateful for them because it shows that God's allowed me to live another day. Quite an accomplishment because when I was born nearly 49 years ago, they didn't expect me to live the DAY. I also nearly died on Nov. 15, 2006, when my b/p shot up. So God isn't done with me yet; and I am so glad He isn't! I'm still here, kickin'! Very good write, Kathy; you go, girl!

(You probably get around better than ME! And I'm YOUNGER! LOL)

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

From a guy eighteen years older . . . You are right, there definately "still much left to do." Hope your health will allow that to happen . . .

Wonderfully and oh so painfully true! Wear it all like a badge of honor bestowed upon you by God himself. Just remember there is still plenty of living yet to be done....

Be always safe,
