Hello Linda
I am the same way about change. The change in me is awesome, but the fat old gray bearded man in the mirror has changed from a handsome young man to an old fart

Well, honey, we can be "old farts" together. I have written a series of five (so far) poems about change, don't know why, just popped into my head one day about how many ways we used the word "change". When I graduated from high school (1967), I weighed 99 pounds. After having three children, I struggled to maintain at 130 pounds. Now, at age 65, I am toting around 200 pounds. Talk about change!! I don't even try to lose it any more, just keep enjoying what I like to eat. Nice talking to ya Bear. . .Linda

another musing from the keen mind of Linda. The word 'change' is so versatile ... it can take on many meanings ... you have used it in various ways ..
well done, my friend

The body of this poem took me by surprise, I certainly wasn't expecting the first line to be about changing a diaper. It's very creative and clever. I like the final statement about being too old to change. Good work.
