Time Shows No Mercy To The Old Poem by Shalom Freedman

Time Shows No Mercy To The Old

Rating: 5.0


Time shows no mercy to the old
Everyday past brings us closer
To the inevitable
And to more illness surprises on the way
And yet we strive to go on
As if the good days
The relatively painless days
Will be ours forever
Fools of our own sometimes happy present
We make our way on
Praying this day now
We'll still be O.K
