not merely dirty
disgusting
they have hardened and yellowed

Between youth and as old age
Is all too easily bridged
As tomorrows become yesterdays

that are painfully clear.
My memory has fled
bottom's like lead.
Alas, old age is here.

When bodies cease
To emit jasmine’s fragrance
When lips aren’t rosebuds
Old age, season to test
The love of those you loved

Turns green in a few months
Withers to orange
As the leaves fall to earth
As I too wither with it

Brave pilgrims of the unknown
Lost paradigms of the blown

the greatest lesson I've learned:
to forgive myself

even if no one else does

another New Year's Day
has arrived.
Old age is here,
it caught me by surprise
as I turned the page

What I miss at this old age
is sitting high like some tree sage,
in a stately southern oak
not thinking of being rich or broke.

old age...
compressing
the passage of time
in a streak of light

The same eyes blink year by year
Time won't stop for you
Expected old age will come

The
whimpers
of childhood-
echo in the
mind,
remembered,seen
as yesterday pictures
without perspective,through a lens
close-up.

Born alone, die alone,
Only union in marriage.
Truth as such is fathomed,
Only then will one be,
Free from bondage,
From now till old age.

Have I lived
For so long
Only to die
Of old age,
Alone in an empty house.

In Life
In childhood you’re playful.
In youth you are lustful.
In old age you’re feeble.

How old age and senile relate
Depends on cycling the flood gate
Forget zipper down?
Always leave it uptown?
Each a unique cognitive state
