This is so true!! It's all about attitude. I'm sure you've seen that meme about there are old-seeming twenty-year-olds and young-seeming ninety year olds. But here's to you and your youthful approach. I'm with you all the way! (See my profile pic? That was taken on my 60th bday. Elderly/schmelderly!! Good luck in the contest!! xoxo

Love your pic. Thanks for the read and the feedback. Age is just a number. Remember: "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing."

This is a well-crafted poem. The message in this poem is good. Your 5-7-5 syllable count is in good order for this contest. Each line of your poem connected well with the next. Good complimentary picture.

Comment from Alexandra Trovato
This poem is well written with full imagery. I can relate to this sentiment because I feel young inside no matter how old I become. My dad died young at 100 so I have a good role model too. Thank you for sharing this.
Best wishes,
Alex
