We grow old, but never grow up,
neither in this nor another life;
we are just ghosts with heartbeats,
simply unaware that we were here.

where promises of gold
outweigh chances to grow old

we watched our children leave
and the cats grow old

change
looking
good today,
ideas  come-

fashioned in new

Truth Is Bold

Truth is ugly and cold

Truth is your mirror,

As we, grow old

Truth takes time

Then, takes hold

On earth, as it is in heaven

Truth is bold

Return

Your ego has sent you there
so afraid yet unaware
You touch the heat,
it turns cold
You push the child,
and you grow old
Your ego has sent you there
Return

Premium Member A Mother's Time

A Father's time's seen in his graying beard
    A Mother's time is respected, revered

  Father's grow old; they're let go
    The sparkle of age in a Mother glows

Our lives are a bit like a rainbow, 
the colours change as we grow old, 
We reach violet last, 
all the shades have now passed
so we die, 
and then turn into gold.

Help Me To Train My Heart

Help me to train my heart each day,
that it may all thy sweetness hold.
Oh, may I bring forth my best fruit
in life's last days as I grow old--

I am 80 years old today.

Memories

Memories keep us close,
although far away.
Memories are priceless,
even as they fade.
Memories can bring comfort,
to a lonely soul,
Memories we cherish, 
never grow old.

But I hope as I grow old, I am not left alone, with only silence around

While I will grow old and then did retire,
Should always try to put out each fire;
A job complete;
Than maker meet;
Moments meant much in all their entire.
