What’s It All About?

Aging well

Is a matter of
Harnessing & honing

The resilience
Depth of character
And
Beauty of spirit
Within

As
Physical attributes
Without
Steadily decline

Finally realizing
And
Embracing

It’s
What’s inside

That has kept us
Afloat
All these years
Anyway

Magic Wand

Wish I had a magic wand
Always keep it strapped right on

Wave it once or thrice a day
Melancholy kept at bay

The trials of life imbued they be
Weighed down until no longer free

Doubts within begin to grow
Circumstances take control

Dark of night closing in
Gone is past future’s dim

Look at the flip side of the coin
In contentment all can join

As each new day dawns fresh morn
Hope eternal stands reborn
