Monday I hit a milestone birthday. I sat down and wrote this poem put to music played by Ben Schwendener. Listen to the narration over the music. It will add to the flavor. Hope you enjoy it and if you, please comment below.
My odometer turned again
One more revolution
With multiple conclusions
One more day, one more week, one more month, one more year….
One more decade
Requiring more inspection, reflection, more protection
Less time ahead, more time today
More thoughtful ‘bout what I do and say
More mood changing, activities rearranging, some friends closer, some estranging
Pants still fit alright, losing weight is a fight
Redefining purpose, life is a circus
No Ringmaster to guide me, looking for answers inside me
Running slower, seeing more
Future’s less a revolution, old problems reaching new conclusions
Trying things I never did,
Revealing thoughts that I kept hid
No warranty or guarantees, some fear facing uncertainties
Choose friends wisely, that don’t disguise me
Eyes less good, see much better
Still a go getter
One more odometer revolution
With multiple conclusions
Happiness has the best impact
Time to think, then time to act
