An Old Man's Morning

February cold
Back ache and joint pain
I am feeling old
Not much time remains

Jim, I'm feeling the aches and pains, too. But I want to live life to its fullest, and I hope you will as well. When "Not much time remains," we may as well make the most of it. It's hard for me to believe how such a short verse evoked so much emotion. Very provocative, Carolyn
