Time For Creativity

The sunset caught me, turned the brush to copper,
set the clouds
to one great roof of flame
above the earth.

Only of one thing I am sure:
when I dream
I am always ageless.

To a life that seizes
Upon content,
Locality seems
But accident.

Outwardly I am 83, but inwardly I am every age, with the emotions and experience of each period.

During much of my life I was anxious to be what someone else wanted me to be. Now I have given up that struggle. I am what I am.
