Sequence-The Circle Turns

Helped
to dress,
eating less,
shadow of our
prime-
our
wisdom
left unsaid-
off early to
bed,
pushed
into
life's layby-
some no longer
try
and
slowly
fade,and die-
no-one wonders
why !

That is so true and well said in this Lanterne. Keep the magical pen flowing. Sara

Awesome Lanterne about the plight of the aging and old.That in itself is natural and good in the Almighty Will but the tradjedy is in your last line.My first read of the day and glad it is. Awesome lanterne, Brian. Thank you. I too have something on the back burner concerning this. Poetic minds and hearts must be connected in spirit somehow. Thanks again and have a great one.
