. Have you noticed how mature leaves fall Roofs of houses are blanketed Do those houses slumber Warm, protected Throughout winter Then the patch of red oaks' skeletal limbs shiver In each Boreas Maybe I, too, have matured Reaching the summit of my Mountain Incapable of going any further Limited in movement Thought, emotion or Have I reached a place Where new goals need To be set Contest: 2022 Poetry Marathon Mile 22 Sponsor: Mark Toney Date written: 12/11/2022

Thank you, Jennifer. I need all the blessings I can get. I think maturity drives us to want to set goals and change for the better. Sara

Gershon, I agree, first we need to make a goal, then break it down into achievable parts, then go for it. Thanks for the reminder. I appreciate the visit. Sara

I like the analogy between the red oak, matured and you. Setting goals is always welcome even though one may have reached the zenith. All the Best Sara !
