Kimberly. This is absolutely wonderful and so clever.I love everything about it.And you've covered it all, the stages of life,with such simplicity and yet a certain charm.As you say finally when we are older what is left is time.But so precious,to enjoy things, value the real things of life.And to learn things about ourselves when the stresses and strains of working life are gone.As you say in tranquility.Beautiful. thank you Love June

Reminds me of two old sayings... 'Youth is wasted on the young' and 'I wish I knew then what I know now'...Very wise and insightful poem, Kimberly, and thanks for your kind comments and support - Tim
