Write A Letter

Write A Letter

 It will make you feel better

If you write a nice letter

To a friend or the friends of your choice

They will love snail or e-mail

(and with or without detail)

Just to “hear”, by your words, your own voice.

So put down the pages

Your feelings, in stages,

Reveal the Real YOU, and Rejoice

Time Goes By

Time Goes By

Time goes by with timeless speed,

Helping to fulfill each need.

Gratefully we try to be

Kind and true, in harmony

With our gifts and specialness

Holding on to youthfulness!

Fill your time with vim-like steam

Bubbling out with Age Esteem

A Lesson From Bubbles

A Lesson From Bubbles

 A lesson from Bubbles

Can lessen your troubles

And blow away worries and cares.

Pain can come in puddles

Bristly and like stubble

And burst when you’re most unaware.

Take a lesson from Bonnie

Blow bubbles with harmony

Encircled by beauty and flair.

The Road Less Traveled

The Road Less Traveled  

The road less traveled is a favorite poem,

The rider is wondering which way to go home.

Difficult choices are hard to decide,

How to show outside, your feelings inside?

You think and feel youthful, but lines make you seem “old”,

You appear to be bashful, but really are bold.

Choose to be unique – and one of a kind,

Be cheerful, be lovely, display your fine mind!

Sun, Sun, Wonderful Sun

Sun, Sun, Wonderful Sun

Sun, sun, wonderful sun,

It makes you want to dance and run;

Even if your muscles wane,

You can do the same in rain!

Why pretend you’re much “too older”?

Take your spirits by the shoulder

They don’t just know any age,

Proof is look at Bonnie’s page!

Live With Zest

Live With Zest

Zest is a word that is easy to rhyme;

It is NOT just used for lemons and limes!

It’s YOU when you’re feeling and showing your best

With Zip in your mind-set and Zing as the rest.

It’s energy, synergy, how great you can seem

With razzle and dazzle and YOUR Age Esteem.

One Of Those Days

One Of Those Days

Everybody has those days:

A kind of parting of the ways

When nothing seems to be all right –

You think you are a sorry sight

Wrinkles show, your waist is fat

What’s to like in all of that?

Shake your finger at those moods

Think of all your aptitudes!

You’re NOT a perfect “mixing bowl”

You ARE a one and unique soul.

So, smile and let that be your choice:

Revive, Restore, Relive, Rejoice!

Each Age Has Esteem

Each Age Has Esteem

(A While-Walking Poem*)

We often hear of happy endings

They make our lives so well worthwhile;

Much nicer still are “happy durings”

They lead to one long lasting smile!

Why wait for bliss to come and find you

It’s NOW, TODAY, just look and glean!

The best to come is not behind you,

EACH age has so much to esteem.

Life’s Garden

Life’s Garden

Growing old (or growing young!)

The keywords are “to grow”.

Hum or sing the songs you sung

Those ageless years ago!

Growth of mind and spirits will

Enrich each precious day,

Plant life’s garden path until

You are your own bouquet.

A Poem

A Poem

A Poem

is at home

within your heart.

A Verse

(even terse)

is an art.

A Rhyme,

every time,

would be smart.

Age Esteem

is to deem (like a dream)

a good start!
