LIVING LIFE

AS WE DO
TODAY
TO THE NEXT MONTH
AS EACH BIRTHDAY GOES BY
SEEING AND FEELING
WHAT OTHERS DO
TO MAKE UP THE DAY
WHEN TOMORROW
IS HERE AGAIN,
AS IT DID BEFORE
AND WILL AGAIN.
SUDDENLY AWARE OF GREY HAIRS
LINES GROOVED THAT DON’T GO
AS THE DAY DOES
REMEMBERING THOUGHTS
AS WE DO
WHEN WE CAN.
