Trying new things is not so hard.
There was a time
when the judgment of others
became door stoppers
and bolted windows.
Imagined boundaries not be be crossed.
As we pass each decade change occurs.
Returning to childhood wishes and hopes
with the maturity of age
opens the windows and doors.
Fresh air and new ideas swirl
with the wind.
Except ~ we live in our own ageism
until the excitement and fascination
with creativity, colours and play
take hold and let us enjoy life
as we want it to be ~
a design of our own choosing.
“When the image is new, the world is new.”
~ Gaston Bachelard, The Poetics of Space
