Gifts
Wrinkles are time's gifts The footprints of its passage Erased by death's winds ·······  ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

Hi Merle & Leo,
Thanks for the read and the comments. Merle, I know about the poor eyesight but have yet to experience arthritis even though I'm nearly 63. Perhaps it is because I use my hands quite a bit in my gardening and writing and that has warded off the onset of that painful disease. Leo, I don't have sufficient funds to cover elective facial reconstruction so I'll just keep my wrinkles and gray hair and be glad that I'm still alive to appreciate them.
