Older
I’m older
Traveled well
Slowing some
I can tell
Appreciate
Compromise
Laughing more
Increased in size
Youthful pose
Playful style
Aching bones
Longer mile
Smart enough
Not to know a lot
Secure enough
With what I got
Chances are
It’s been spent
I’m older now
That’s where it went
Forward moving
Yesterdays done
Time for life
To bear me a son
Flowers rest
Where beauty glows
Upon your face
And soft eyes
I’m older
Traveled well
Slowing some
I can tell
