Getting Older

We used to be like them as we now simply shuffle along the floor we would create cool moves but now have learned the fox trot and more... We used to walk down the street hand in hand now we simply talk or energy is less you understand but the smiles are the same as is the wink of the eye and you are still in my heart and at times, I still feel kind of shy... Now we have grandchildren who would have thought? seems like yesterday we were children ourselves but somehow by time we got caught- so now we look to our golden years that are o so near you and I together go forward without any fear challenging our bodies to keep up with the times as we stretch and bend and keep rhythm in lifes rhymes.
