A Poem by missysue
"

Thinking about my birthday coming........wondering how I feel about it.

"

29

This birthday hat.

It's lonely this year.

Will anyone even care?

The sides dig into my ears

and the ridiculous silver shines

a pattern on the wall.

How very magical.

I want to scream at it.

Tell it to stop all it's shimmering nonsense.

I'm not shiny.

Nothing about me is.

I imagine if it could speak,

it would tell me to get lost.

And I would reply, "I already am".

Age, history and future tasks, melded perfectly with climbing ambition and frailty, well written, good read.

The good part is that there comes an age when we do not fear the number. Instead of counting how many have passed, and worrying, we begin to count how many remain, and vow to enjoy them.
