Older Poem by Alan Walsh

Older



I've reached an age, it's like turning a page, Stop!
I don't look like I looked at me five, ten years ago,
I've entered stability and severe subtlety I think,
It matters not to shy the Sun so my skin won't shrink.

Some people become older just age only, and you then be older and wiser, that's great...well everyone will be older and it always happen...but to be mature is always a thing that hard to achieve, i think you are great on your time, a good person to follow..nice write! _Soul

I can relate. Nice poem on aging and the brevity gives it poetic precision. Posting comments here at PH will age you faster, I think!
