Nuances

Quizzical play
Musical sway
Comical day


Humour greets joy
Drama now toys
Greet crazy ploy


Lines in new finds
Blur drowsy mind
Word cryptic signs


Noise floods my ears
What's that I hear
As daytime steers


Odd movement slides
Awkward I glide
Slow wobbly strides


Focus and see
Bright eyes sleepy
Abrupt dream flees


Gather my wits
Yes bit by bit
Rise, stand and sit


When age comes round
Edgy such grounds
In lost and found


Memory lapse
Energy saps
Stranded mind maps


Brisk walking thrust
Adrenaline rush
Unseats plain mush


Here we go now
Fast strides endow
New ground to plough


Pleasure and pain
Voice clear refrains
With yearly gains


Wise and weary
Sighs prime richly
My comedy


Each day a thrill
Of stubborn will
All sorts of pills!


Now I can see
Pass all worry
Eternity!
