Drop Me off @ the Next Stop

Neville

Drop Me off @ the Next Stop

 

Growing up takes forever

Whereas growing old

Seemed to happen overnight

  • L. B. Mek

    like the play between the title and the poem itself,
    sobering truths you penned

    • Neville



      ................... reading between the lines is a gift you have for sure ... thanking you kindly L.B and true ... Neville

    • Fay Slimm.

      Hearts grow not old though skin starts to wrinkle and hope keeps the love-spots alive -- that is my offer to these three solemn lines...............x

      • Neville



        How bloomin kind you are dear Fay ... and I thank thee for eternity ... maybe ..... x

        • Fay Slimm.

          Hmm - thee thankin' me for eternity calls for a Yes and not just a Maybe.

            • Neville



              ... thank you most kindly Michael and I mean that in a big way so I do ...

                The Bus driver says Destiny stops for no man. Growing old means you have a seat closer to the exit.
                A few words that explain my life, thanks. - Phil A.
