Give Me One Minute

i'm on the poetry site dear
don't concern yourself with what i say...
when you're young it's go go go
see what the world is about
but when you're oldt it's stop and listen
see what the world is about as it goes by

yes...it is a bit of a shock at first when it hits 'home' ...there's kind of a quiet 'increase' in awareness : )
