In Times of Fading Light

Your years and days become shorter as memories past seem further away when your bones and limbs ache one wonders what's become of the day One's hearing seems dull and lacking and pardon's a regular word you don't have regular conversations even hard to hear chirp of morning bird The mobility you're now lacking and shakier on your feet you need someone to hold to or more often on your seat The eye test becomes more regular with prescription glasses even stronger the headlines is all you can read and sleepless nights seem longer So fading light comes to us all these times unavoidable they are but still some moments to savour ones to cherish forever by far
