January Twenty-Fifth

January twenty-fifth 
silver locks idle talk with
age comes wisdom an old myth
a dance holding firmly fixed walker

A belated Happy Birthday Eve. While reading this poem I realized that I could sadly relate to the "age comes wisdom an old myth"...sadly. I think it is written so well. Very clever.
