Do We

If a whole life is to be lived, one day at a time.
Through age comes wisdom, do we eventually refine

Or do we bitter with age, allowing our black to show
Then we haven't really lived, to allow our halo's to glow

Amongst the many poems I've written, quite a few are similar to this one. More so related to Nature, and what man is doing within her peripheral. Many thanks for your kind words Olive, James :) :)
