The future ain't what it used to be',
well the days get longer but the years shorter.
the cliched light at the end of the tunnel gets nearer;
'old age ani't no place for sissies' so Ms Davis said
how right that was, though an understated aphorism.
strange though many so called sissies are the strongest people I know.
truth is the future is shorter, beginning to think more in the past.
yeah, so it's right ' the future just ain't what it used to be'
mainly because there is less of it.
You have so aptly described the dwindling down of time in poetic form. I particularly liked the line about thinking more in the past. Age will do that to us. A wonderful poem that touches the hearts of your readers. Thanks for sharing. : -)
