Notes About The Poem

Am Getting Old

Am getting old yet heart’s aglow Bliss thunder throbs within Way of life, tranquil stillness slow Wrinkles adorn my skin Mind not life scars and pain Now, no bondage, no chain As wisdom, I ingrain My hands feel cold Am getting old 14-January-2022 Quietus

How beautifully you have summed up the pain of old age, yet keeps the ember of life alive that can be blown into a flame. Lovely !
