As We Get On In Years Poem by Audrey Heller

As we get on in years, we'll start seeing
the changes, here and there! We'll put on,
a little weight and strands of gray, will appear
in our hair! You don't worry, about the small
things, the way you used to do. For you
really don't let it, get the best of you! You've
learned a lot through the years. There was
the bad, with the good and the laughter and
the tears! Life, has a way of teaching you, a
lesson. You have to pay attention and not,
make the same mistakes, you once did!
Remember, as we get on in years, we have
to stop behaving, like a kid! It's a good plateau,
to reach, as we take life, more seriously! You're
even more relaxed, for you've been there, done
that and now, live your life, capriciously!
