I saw my only son today <br /> and noted to my great dismay <br /> his hair is now completely grey. <br />I think that this must be Natures way <br /> of pointing out I’m older too. <br />A fact with which I can’t argue. <br />That does not mean I should not do <br />the things that I’m still able to. <br />I lack the youthful energy <br /> I used to squander wastefully <br />But what I have I use wisely. <br />I am not old; refuse to be. <br />The passing years I just ignore <br />don’t even count them anymore. <br /> <br />30-Jan-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/old-age-is-a-frame-of-mind/
