Through the Ages

Through the Ages
By Franklin Price
8/11/2015

Through the ages 
Smiles and tears
Moved in stages
Through the years

Childhood, youth
Middle, old
Long in tooth
I've grown quite bold

Say what I will
I must confess
Say what I feel
Who I address

Satisfied 
With who I am
Nothing to hide
Still give damn

Maybe more
Than any time
Working before
Not so sublime

Can be just me
 With loving wife
Where I should be
This age in life
