As we age we need more things <br />To keep us on our toes <br />We want fewer things, however <br />Only the "older" generation knows. <br /> <br />We value each day we are here <br />We treasure those that we love <br />We get a little closer to God <br />As we pray to Him up above. <br /> <br />We are sort of like the flowers <br />At the end of summer, I think <br />But our value is even greater <br />Like aged wine we love to drink. <br /> <br />Each day is more important to me <br />I take time to enjoy all that I do <br />I'm wondering, my friend <br />Are later years the same for you?<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-are-like-flowers/
