Defined With Time

They tell a story, these imperfections. Every wrinkle's an emotion sealed by routine feedback. Indents and scars were carved with care. Mistakes were made, but you were spared. Calluses show your strength through tough times. Each crease defines you. 1-3-2021 A Diminished Hexaverse Contest Sponsor: Caren Krutsinger

Juliet, "Callouses show your strength through tough times. Each crease defines you." The callouses.., how beautiful. And the scars too, all so beautiful here, all so beautiful now. -Richard

Your poem reflects a beautiful way of looking at aging. And that outlook ages one beautifully! Best of wishes for the contest. :=)
