Golden Years
by Sal Parisi
Copyright 2001 Sal Parisi
Poem - The golden years should be wonderful.
Your years that are golden
should be the best time of your life;
it seems to me.
But, as you know,
life gives us different twists
such as the loss of someone or something.
that causes you to clench your fists.
But, if you put them in your good heart,
You’ll have a tremendous memory
to call upon from the start.
And the fact that love is so much of us…
That, to me is the greatest plus.
