This was recently posted on Medium: Adjusting Lenses
humankind’s nature
often means brisking each day
keeping steady pace
what happens when it changes
when the leaves of life falter
as the elder man
finds the keys don’t play as well
hearing notes less clear
it’s an evolvement of life
requiring tune ups often
when grandmothers cry
because their children are old
no longer in laps
still wanting for the snuggles
take them back to the time when
as life slows way down
keeping in mind the goodness
days when suns are high
looking to the skies for hope
seeing joyfulness each day
adjusting lenses
early in the childrens’ lives
seeing and learning
each day is perfectly made
for any age to delight
