Truer words were never spoken...same with birthday decades. The memory seems so long ago but yet how swift you arrive. My birthday is this week...sigh, a big one. If covid wasn’t here I could celebrate sweeter.

Funny you should write this, is it because we are getting older, but we were talking about exactly the same thing last night - we work through the day, in between and in the evening find time for poetry soup, then always watch CNN for the latest on Trump, eat and go to bed which is then 11.00 p.m. We have become night owls to stretch the day a little! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

At least the promise was kept, and tomorrow is another day. I enjoyed this lovely poem, Gershon. :)

Time sure does to whiz by fast now, doesn't it, Tom?! A "timely" observation, for which I thank you. ~ Gershon
