Carpé Diem?

Setting up new life and living

with wrinkles and silvering hair;


with excitement and trepidation,

a question slips into my thoughts ~ 


what makes me think 

I’ll step out of my dreams?!


Outside I may look like an adult

but my insides are only three!


But ~ I’ll stand still slowly,

with one breath, one step at a time


I'll set up new life and living

with wrinkles and silvering hair.


“Keeping up the appearance of having

 all your marbles is hard work, but important.”

~ Sara Gruen, Water for Elephants
