We aren't designed to stay young forever. We are here to make a decision as to where we want to pledge our allegiance. Our body changes but I inside we still feel young. We are promised a perfect body that won't age in the future.

This is an exceptional poem in every respect--skillfully written, with excellent rhyme and meter, and reverent, profound descriptions of what counts most in life. Our bodies grow old, but the Lord's love and grace do not.

One of your better ones. Clear and without question. I still have broad shoulders, camouflaged beneath the breast line, protected by blubber.
Be well my friend, and where is it you live again. Must not be the USA as the date 13/11/21 is not their way.

Another amazing piece of writing. It has a great flow and rhyme scheme . Death could never hold him down,
He rose to life and wears love's crown.
When He arose He grasped my hand,
I live with God in Beulah Land.
Nice overall presentation. Great photo to compliment
your words as well. Beautiful.

This is a great poem, I had to do six stars. I love the Christian theme, or maybe it is just Christian completely. Remarkable! The rhyme scheme, the creativity. The vastness in what it talks about. All of this pulled together in a spectacular way. Great job!

Your artwork is gorgeous. And very few can top your rhyming, my friend. Great job as always, Roy.

I once had skin as smooth as silk,
with flesh as pure as full cream milk.
With shoulders broad, lines well defined,
some fine ideals, strong heart and mind. [love this stanza. Describes most of us old-timers. :))

This is an especially meaningful poem, Roy. I suppose that's because as I age, I am well aware of all the physical changes others perceive, and yet I am still filled with wonder at this youthful joy that remains in my heart!
You don't find that solution in an anti-aging cream. Faith. Faith is the thing!

Is Beulah Land, the land of Israel?

You are one of the best poet that use rhyme. Your words flow without effort and the rhymes don't seem forced. The poem has a melodic sound, very pleasing. I like the presentation too.

Well done, Roy.

Such a triumphant last stanza. I read this twice just to experience a second time the lift and joyousness of the crescendoing words. Your flawless meter keeps the lines flowing musically and of course, the rhymes are perfect too. A wonderful poem, very much enjoyed. Twice. ð???
