fdelano Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Old Age Starts at different ages. Life's effects always finds the weaknesses. The brain and organs enclosed within the skin, also an organ working. Experiences cause changes combined with genes and DNA make us unique. Some inherit organs that outlast the system that keeps them alive. Best is that ability to see or imagine the beauty in everything. In a field of weeds grow thistles which can enamor. Families can find each other in celebration with potluck and laughter at foolish kin. A job can clearly be a burden or a joy of personal achievement. Writing a poem can be a past-time or a joy of words. Feebleness after activity can bring relief of relaxation and the illusion of strength. Deterioration can bring misery or pride in having gained all possible pleasure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyv Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 This one's profound, Franklin. I think you qualify the statement you make in the first two lines thoroughly by looking at it from all the angles, all the way down to the last three lines, the incredible spin at the end.

Benjamin Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I agree that old age starts at different ages.Some struggle with the weight of life more than others and the gene pool is a lottery. The "joy of words" is a great leveller: it has no boundaries. So keep on writing my friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
