Getting on with day to day
is merely a foot on the floor
a cup of coffee, no worries
about whether age matters.
The joints may be creaky,
the constant jabber on TV
selling pills and adult diapers
is annoying and the calendar
tells me where I slide on
the continuum birth to death.
I have little time for those details.
That’s one of the rabbit holes
too deep for me when
I have bills to pay and
bread to bake;
my family, working, living,
going to school, having fun,
is my joy and love ~ So,
I do have time for getting on
with each day in front of me.
“Nothing can dim the light that shines from within.”
~ Maya Angelou
