Wrinkles
Wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles.
Lines stretching,
Deepening with age.
Etched stories of life.
Wrinkles bursting around the mouth.
Spraying sunbursts from eyes.
Settling in on brows that shift.
The portrait of success!
Anyone with less,
Is a boring mess.
No dance to life,
Without the wrinkles of strife.
No conversation can include,
What a person understood.
The height of experience,
The depth of failure.
Give me a friend,
With wrinkles all about.
Her life is something to brag about!
