I'm not old, but I'm not young...
gradually aging with
random rashes and hot flashes,
new pain and sudden weight gain.
I'm not old, but I'm not young...
my kids now adults with
graduations pending and
major life plans commencing.
I'm not old, but I'm not young...
my experience with
adulting is three decades strong
but wisdom comes slowly along.
I'm not old, but I'm not young...
friends have come and gone with
Facebook helping to ease distance
as others spring to existence.
I'm not old, but I'm not young...
happily aging with
the career I always wanted
and love that has not absconded.
