Young & Golden


 


In my younger days


life was golden


 


The sun was bright


in the olden


days of summer


 


I was younger


yet now older


life is still golden


 


These days of our lives,


These days of joy and strife


Time stands still


 


The first time


and it was now


These days of summer


when I was young,


are now over and gone


 


Autumn fast approaches


and then Winter


life is golden


 


The sun still bright


in the olden


days of summer


 


In my younger days


I believed in springs


and golden summers


 


The snow now lies


on the ground


frozen as my youth

Love the way this verse dances! No "old talk" allowed until you are at least 90 years on the planet, CJ! Well done.

Dale, an extremely well-penned thought-provoking write illustrating the wonders of aging with wisdom, dignity and grace while realizing that age is only a number, something which we can never avoid except through denial. Heck, next year I’ll be 20…lol. Yet Poet, this is a timeless creation my friend. Thank you for sharing it. Take care and be well.
