Be Dazzling

~Be Dazzling~ Who wants to grow old? Shivering alone, in the cold, Beneath an old oak tree? Not my bag of tea. Refusing to age, so ungracefully, Don shoes, gold,with straps, A beautiful magenta dress, perhaps? Sparkling jade necklaces that glitter. Auburn tresses that equally shimmer. Setting a man's soul...aquiver! Panagiota Romios 4/5/2019 10 lines, 5 words, Rhyme Iii Contest Sponsor: Laura Loo

Nothing wrong with aging gracefully.

Very true, David. To each his own, right? I just prefer doing the samba on the way out with festivity. Others, like rocking chairs, not me. I hope I made that clear. It was a fun poem, only my silly way of expressing who I am. Plenty of ways to live for us all. Call me "ungraceful" it's OK. I love you no matter what...Panagiota)))))
