Notes About The Poem
another poem from my memory bank
Age a Testimony
AGE
comes upon us all
gradually realisation
hits all of a sudden
Hearing no longer
acute
comments & questions
need a repeat
in a world no longer distinct
One day
we need assistance
with
what
others voice and say
an aid to
complement the grey
AGE comes upon us
so gradually realisation
hits all of a sudden
floaters appear
in our eye
magnification is needed for
near and far
the exit door is ajar
AGE comes upon us
gradually
realisation
hits all of sudden
fingers have nodules
& bumps
& no longer grip
to prevent a fall
we walk with a stick
sometimes
'senior moments' we often recall
when the realisation
of age
gradual creeps up
on us all
