Walk With Me While I Age



I hope this poem has the same effect on you as it did on me; then my
forwarding it will be worth the effort.
Walk with me while I age - worth the read.



A BEAUTIFUL POEM ABOUT GROWING OLDER































SHIT ......




I forgot the words.

E

Beautiful.



My secret to growing older is not not grow old. Just keep living as young as your body will let you as long as you can. Let the others grow old while you just keep living.

cheers

getting old--(Maya Angelou)---Maya was an American poet,memorist,and civil rights leader.She was a descendant of slaves.borm April,4,1928--died May,28,2014

when you see me sitting quietly,lile a sack on a shelf
don't think I need your chattering,I'm listening to myself.
Hold!,stop!,.Hold!,stop,don't pity me .Hold!,stop your sympathy
understanding if you got it,otherwise I'll do without it
when my bones are stiff and aching and my feet won't climb the stair
I will ask just one favor;don't bring me no rocking chair
when you see me walking,stumbling,don't study and get it wrong
cause tired don't mean lazy,and every goodbye ain't gone
I'm the same person I was back then,a little less hair,a little less chin
a lot less lungs and much less wind
but ain't I lucky?
I can still breathe in
