On ThE Edge of Elderly

Excellence is not a given

Upon laurels it must not rest

Remedy aspires equation

Endless melody reflections

Kindness climbing moment mountain

Another verse, coda till rest

Underneath yesterday’s blank slate

Static shadows await no one

Evolving plus and negative

Feeding a newspaper questions

Underlining where hope reminds

Life’s zest tastes lemon grated rind

Chilly with snow and winds do creak

Rattle the bones expecting tweaks

All that lasts falling into smile

Yes was where there was for awhile

Or a frozen in time fossil

Needing a sunny day with clouds

Supplication has changed era

Keel over and go to heaven

Entertaining a doubt leavened

Table cloth a daily prayer

Challenges actualities

Hell is awaiting heretics

Both is rust and satisfaction

Exhale with continuity

Answers find doors asking open

Utter hoping thoughts finding more

Thinking the exits long ago

Yielding trips skipping rhymes jumping
