Comment from Opal H.
There are a lot of people and poems about the negatives of aging, and this one's positive take on it is quite refreshing. Aging, and for that matter anything in life, has so many perspectives. Well done.

thx so much, Opal!! if we allowed ourselves to remain depressed about aging, life would REALLY suck, wouldn't it?
Comment from Fiona Hymn
I found this work to be clever, humourous but with a touch of poignancy that underscores the overall tone. The read is soft, gentle and flowing with imagery. A challenging write to be sure, a pleasure to read.

It isn't so bad, not when you write such terrific poems like this. I found this delightful! My son is 6 foot 3, so I related to everything you said here. Taking life in huge, famished gulps and wanting more.
I love the way you ended the poem, and I got a kick out of the picture. Thanks for sharing!
