Threatening near
Wrinkles on forehead
Lines on corners of eye
Netted crosses on cheeks
Plumps of fat
On protruding belly
Double chins

Flowers

...Blooming into creation,
A life has started.

Bright colours alive,
A life has begun.

Shrivelling away,
An old life retreating.

Bright colours fading,
An old life ending....
