Ageless Mark Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

Ageless Mark

Rating: 5.0

Time does not measure
nor limit our potential.
The calendar cannot dictate
that our best days
are behind us.

Our power and worth
are no shooting stars--
they carry no fleeting light.

The toils of determination,
of patience, hard work,
and resilience
accumulate wealth
with every passing year
to leave a deeper,
more meaningful work.

At any stage of life,
the sun still shines
and the twilight showers
its own flame.

Triumph can strike
anywhere at anytime.
Our brightest fires
can consume
in the blink of an eye.

A brilliant philosophical poem indicating the agelessness of our true value which can last for ever.Any moment can bring victory or loss.Excellent teaching from the great pen.Many thanks for sharing your ideas, particularly the last two stanzas.

So beautifully penned dear friend! Indeed, age shouldn't dictate what we can do for those we love, as long as we have life and love we should never ever give up!
