Old As A Rock Poem by Kevin Patrick

Old As A Rock

Rating: 4.8


Demonstrate to me what it means to be an adult
And I’ll show to you it’s the masquerade of a child
Rocks don’t grow old but they break apart with age
People do the same but they pretend and call it Sage

Yes Patrick, the old is wise- generally speaking. But wise or not, they, too, break apart with age. I'm not quite that old yet, and I can feel some breaking going on. It's a part of life. I find this very interesting.

Interestingly put. Rocks don’t grow old but they break apart with age Like when in mans name a war is waged, yet the odds always stay the same. Just titles. I like the phrase I am not old enough to know everything By, Oscar Wilde It comes to mind when i read this.
