Declining Years Poem by Guido Blokland

Declining Years



It pains me to watch
as you move down
the path of years
rock strewn as it is

The rocks
grow bigger
as you diminish
valiantly though

The doubt
sometimes grows large
but you battle on
determined

I know
where this path
leads
and will end

I'm willing you on
for as much
as you can
as the light fades
