Joseph T. Renaldi - Growing Old

Strive to be cognizant, growing old -
There are so many fine things to do,
Traveling and pursuing a hobby,
and materialistic things need not be new.

There is healing in open wounds,
Old experiences an illusory hold.
Why may not you as well as these,
remain memorable, growing old?

Joseph T. Renaldi
