Age Images In Mirrors Timeless Poem by Terence George Craddock

age is manifest all around us
age fills the world in mountains oceans
age is in all plants animals all lives
age time transforms through stages
age birth growth reproduction death
age in late life onslaught in humans
age stealing hair stealing tooth
age becomes ruthless strikes toothless

many artists
like Michaelangelo
made detailed sketch studies
of age in youth
of age in old age
these sketches are images timeless
