Senior Dilemma

The senior old all the while young,
Walks slow and not fast,
Thinks good thoughts and always patient,
A lifetime experiences to be lived again,
Talents to be discovered at a an enhanced level,
Service to mankind and friends,
The effort to be strong experentially,
With relatives and friends all the while knowing,
We all write our own chapters,
A church to be respected whatever the religion.
