Poem Artwork


 
 
  Graying of hair
Bit of a spread
Feet of clay, I
sit here slowly
aging.

Thinking back,
I was a burner
of bridges, was
always in love,
now I'm not.

Good things in
life - they come
& they go, they
come & they go,
go figure.

Tired of always
being told what
to & what not to
do - designed to
enlighten us.

But have to keep
in mind 'tis better
to progress than
digress - sanity
keeps me in check.


'2008' RLS

Ya got me on the greying hair, and held me to the very end. Sometimes I think sanity is what keeps us all in check even if we slip once and awhile. Delightful write, Bonnie

One of the reasons why I chose to take early retirement. Thank you, Lance. Love and peace,
