LIFE IS A ROAD TRIP
No matter
when or where
we made our
advent into
the world;
we began a
journey down,
or up, the
road of life.
Along the way
"101" ups and
downs meet us
on our journey.
We have tried
to extend life
with pills and tucks,
but the journey
on life's road continues;
it gets faster the
longer we have
traveled our road.
Up ahead, either
closer than ever, or
still at a distance,
The DEAD end is
reached. Yet, death
isn't the end of us,
as long as someone
remembers the good,
hopefully, we have done.
Checked your mile
markers lately?

At 72, getting closer to the end of that trip. Trying to be more ''zen'', sensing, knowing how weak the body is. The mind is something else. Up to you to prevail. Nice write. Robert.
