evolving perpetually

do not use that nebulizer    you will get addicted

really in my son's mind he is thinking

my mother you look like an ill patient   older and dependent on this machine

and i want you back  as you were when i was ten

nope     things are not  that easy

 parents change in shape and form

they get ill, they wither

yet they want to be the same to  their kids and remain

mom or dad forever... young , vibrant, strong 

and meeting the needs of their children

life evolves till the chldren

wither

and remember

us

WOW! This is harsh, but in an appealingly honest way. It's hard to see our parents old & feeble, but this is somewhat expected . . . I believe it might be even harder for a parent to see his/her child feeble & broken long before their time. You've expressed your universal observations in a thought-provoking & straightforward way (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Those machine. Poor step-mother lived off them. Bad part didn't help her. I liked your logical thoughts and you are right. Evolving means we will get old and the children one day too. Thank you Marilyn for sharing your amazing words and thoughts.

So much wisdom and truth in your words, Marilyn. It's a sad tale, but humble and sincere. Truth, even when sad, is always brighter than fiction, at least over time. A touching poem. Well done!

YES SURELY WE WITHER, BUT IT CAN'T STOP US FROM PURSUING WHATEVER WE WANT IN LIFE. i LIKE THE POEM VERY MUCH I REMEMBER SOMETHING THAT WISDOM DOES NOT WITHER WITH AGE BUT FROM EXPERIENCE. SO NO MATTER HOW OLD OR USELESS WE WILL BE WE HAVE TO THINK ALWAYS THAT THERE WAS A TIME THAT WE WERE WISER, AND LIVED THE LIFE WE WANT TO BE. KEEP ON WRITING. I CAN RELATE WITH YOUR POEMS.
