Lone Silver
Just like that, without an inkling
A voice inside started talking
Good or bad, dance or sing
Get up and do your heart’s thing
Fly attached or solo but do bring
Some wind under that placid wing
Violet to red and all in between
Taste the unknown, unseen
Pack light, act fast and explore
It blatantly seemed to implore
Worry less, smile and laugh more
Heal spots that still feel sore
Bright summer does dwindle
Gray winter works its spindle
I stared at my brow in the vanity mirror
The lone silver hair appeared clearer
