when they look at us
what do they see
besides the obvious…
maybe there’s
nothing left to see…
or they’re missing something
too much and too little
there’s old
and then there’s old

I love you Shirley Girl! You are so young at heart! 🙂
Wow, Shirley! Another terrific poem. It is always a pleasure to read your observations on life.
Shirley, I love you… and your poetry! xo
As the body gets old and creeks it’s the mind we must keep young!
Shirley oils her mind so well………Quite a girl!!!
