Aging

As the fog shrouds everything with damp
Settles into the eaves
Nature huddles in dens and nests
Droplets cling to all leaves

Foggy now in the thought process
Pathways slow just a bit
Not happy about this aging
What's the future in it?

Keep writing Sara, it helps to keep the pathways open and as far as the Future goes, it's a lie, all we ever have is Now.

Wonderful little poem, Sara. We can not really be sure about the future in it, especially the physical part. But, beyond that we can only pray the God reaches out to guide us into the life beyond. Lovely poem, my friend..... Robert.
