I Realize I AM Getting Older . . . .

                         One day older !  Oh, you are right !

Even last week has gone out of sight.

But it was OK to anticipate,

and remembering was fun — that was great !


Somehow I got older, gradually . . . 

years flew by, forgetting started — in me !

Wish I had more photos, well organized;

At least school yearbooks are a prize.


Remembering info is such a chore

So, write it down, your achievements and more.

Exercise your brain by learning new stuff.

Handle those challenges; is that enough ! 


So friend, this is my suggestion for you:

Keep your body in good shape, your mind, too.

God gave you a life — how long will it last ?

Ask Him for help and blessings; life goes fast.


Great promises in the Bible you find.

Read them, keep those words in your mind.

Eternal life — imagine the bliss !

Jesus loves you, so don’t miss out on this !!!
