A Poem a Day

National Poetry Month…

Day 6

Life Begins at Forty…

Yesterday, was the day I was still thirty nine
And all seemed to be dandy and fine
One day older and I am over the hill
This seems a tidbit chill.

“Old man” I am as of today
Young I was yesterday!

Benjamin Franklin once said
“At twenty years of age the will reigns
At thirty the wit and at forty the
judgement.”

Life begins at Forty…

that’s my sentiment!
