Ages Poem by Sheila Knowles
Ages
If I could relocate
the imagination of my childhood,
lay it next to
the experimentation of my teens,
infuse it with
the debauchery of my twenties,
wrap it up in
the frustration of my thirties
season it with
the serenity
I've yet to achieve in my forties
and the wisdom
that's sure to come with my fifties,
I've a good chance of becoming a poet
before I collapse into my sixties.
charming yet exploring the profound deeply delving into time its terror and mystery a masterful poem
still looking for the serenity and the wisdom, great poem, wonderful lines
Sheila, You have to be an optimist, what makes you think that you will see things clearer, than the past has ever shown you? B.V.A.
You are all ready a great poet from what I have read/brilliant cheers Sylvie
