Let Us Grow Old

Let us grow old then you said                                                                                                           If we must grow old                                                                                                                        Looking for diamonds in the heart of man                                                                                         And let us go with speed yet not too fast                                                                                             Along these corridors of time                                                                                                                   Learning as we go you said                                                                                                                    That there can be no tyranny greater than our own                                                                           Nor love as beautiful                                                                                                                           Nor loneliness as everlasting

Poet Destroyer A April 11, 2013 at 6:01 PM Hello Michael, the poem is odd, but lovely and grew on my thoughts. I like that you have yourself something beautiful, and older than the time of the tyrants. .. Have yourself a nice one, always & forever* Linda" Michael Ainsley September 7, 2013 at 11:20 PM the point here is that we are responsable only for what we create and that our creations can be vary powerful.
