Facing Decrepit Stage Courageously
Becoming decrepit is an inevitable occurrence
Challenging wellness of its real consequence
Oldness evidently attacks, confronting my denial’s insistence…
Now, I must be ready midst time's persistence
To face frailty courageously with joyous iridescence!
Undoubtedly obvious
Physical debility shows how life is precious
Prodding me to value moments, being cautious
Warning me that I can be both anxious and oblivious…
Thus; my strength today should be spent graciously victorious!
Seriously at work well
The aging process grips every cell
Exposing grey hair, weakening body’s fuel
Even diminishing functionality the spirit doesn’t tell…
Now, I welcome it; while in my tasks, I should still excel!
Incredibly dominant midst my midlife stage
Growing old charges me to use its great advantage
Teaching with wisdom, led by God Who does manage
Along His love and grace-might of increased faith’s gauge…
I ought to keep on serving joyously, subduing dilapidation’s wreckage.
