Aging

Wandering into
Mist-shrouded, cavernous rooms.
Gliding past ghostly
  Mirrors. Choking on Pages
  Of a Faded Existence.

Wow! Gershon, absolutely stunning.. the imagery, the intent.. an evocative and emotive poetic portrayal of the cold hard facts of losing your sense of relevance associated with aging. Beautifully expressed, my friend. Warmest wishes. ~Susan

Thank you for this impressive, inspiring comment!--But how would someone as young as you relate so well to such a topic? --Perhaps it's your heightened sense of empathy? At any rate, I'm still scratching my head here...Warm, warm warmest wishes, Susan. You continually make my day! :) Gershon

Thanks, Jan! Of course, this is a topic which a 20-something like yourself views strictly from an intellectual point of view...(Ahem...) :) Gershon
