In Life

In childhood you're playful.
In youth you are lustful.
In old age you're feeble.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Hexasyllabic is six syllables per line. Well done. If I were to add a fourth line, I would change the period at the end of line three to a comma, and my fourth line would be 'and also forgetful.'

I do have a fourth line, 'In death you are peaceful.' To me it didn't fit with in life.
