Notes About The Poem

How Much We Are 

As a young man, I thought

How much I was, and how less you are.

As an old man, I think

How less I was, and how much you are.

And as an old man, I realize,

how much we are!

How Much We Are

How Much We Are

As a young man, I thought
How much I was, and how less you are.
As an old man, I think
How less I was, and how much you are.
And as an old man, I realize, 
how much we are!
