Getting there
thinning hair
hurting teeth
I think I am
getting there
backache and cramps
blurred visions
in the morning
what is that again...
I comb my hair
like I used to
It's faster today
its thin up there
beauty
is a distant drum
just an echo
passed like sands
through my hands
I am getting there.

Thanks:) I wish I aged gracefully...the camera caught a good angle there. No triple chins...hidden cleverly. :) MrM.
I've already arrived, Grace. The years have taken their toll. I can say with conviction that I know how "Getting There" feels. An accurate representation, painted with eloquence. Great job.
