Four Steps At a Time
over the years
I have sped up and down
many stairs
one step
two steps
three steps
four steps
at a time
as I’ve gotten older
I take fewer steps
at one time
and go slower
is it for the lack of energy
the fear of falling
are my legs getting shorter
or as I would like to believe
is it just me
thinking
as a benefit of getting older
