A Poem Inspired by Fall







 
                     

Help! My Leaves are Falling!

 Just as I excel in all I do—

Hitting my prime

My features dry up and fall off

like leaves in autumn time.



At thirty it was my waist

The hourglass forever erased.

At forty it was my eyes

With glasses I had to accessorize



At fifty it was my hair—

Some of it no longer there!

At sixty it was my ears—

The sound just disappears



I learn from life lessons quite a few

But often can’t remember what I was about to do!

As I grow older I ask for God’s grace,

His peace and strength to finish the race.
