walking on my two feet

breathing on my own

as if I accomplished a feat

………………………………………………

i can eat my own food

as i can see the beautiful world

with these middle aged eyes

the lovely view has unfurled

………………………………………….

there would be a time

not so far in future, dear

when all this would be arduous

but please don’t fear

…………………………………………….

now you have it all

revel in the moment

don’t let time slip away

don’t be indolent
