Gracefully Ageless

We are born It’s a miracle at best, From tiny little seeds Then in God’s hands we rest, As we grow into our toddler stage We walk and run and fall, And then before you know it We’re a tween and very tall, Soon we find our self in college An independant twenty one, Then we move on to relationships The single party days are done, We work through life and time goes by Managing jobs and mortgage debt, We try to plan our future best And children we are soon to get, The hair is thinning and the weight goes on As we glance in the mirror a story is told, If we are lucky many years have gone by In good health, and grow gracefully old.
