Tribute poem to all my elder friends, mentors and family alive and passed.
Ninety years already, life continues to amaze
Respecting elders - meaningful, polite phrase
Spent too much time living in a daze
Now I'm learning to maximize my days
Stifle your opinions, let me have my say
My favorite dessert - special treat for today
Let me ahead in line, won't mean much anyway
A seat with a view, let me enjoy my stay
Breaking a hundred seems to be a craze
What does the end look like through the haze?
Continued care senior living - another life phase
Longevity issues, probing questions it does raise
I've come a long way
Tried my best not to stray
Let me have this day
Maybe my last, it's okay
This day, my day
