I Likes it. I refuse to be "old," so call me "experienced." Yeah, that one should work.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

yes, not older, just wiser...
thank you, j.

You are not there yet, monsieur Jacob! You can always take the scenic route or the detour. Wonderful thoughts in the brevity of this piece. Much appreciated! :))

We all end up on that bus sooner or later if granted the "gift" of older age. I'll see you there one day :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Could be a mental state...if so, then I am a fellow resident.

But then, "they've all come to look for America."

All we can do now is keep punching above our weight...

[jacob erin-cilberto]

yes, and i'm still "laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces..."
thank you, Ted...we've plenty of room for you.

You are master of your own destiny. Maybe you have stayed too long in the same state? :)) Two solutions, change your outlook on life and imagine yourself young again or move to a state where all the youngsters hang out:) Fun write and play on words.

dearest Jacob... Route 66 has become Route 76
where roads emerge and Primrose Paths begin...
hopefully at Lovers Leap. Happy Leap Year !
truly, Pat

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Happy Leap Year back my friend...i don't do as much leaping as i used to.

Perhaps just watching the Eastern Star Venus will be enough inspiration. I just googled Venus the eastern star for 2020. Seems worth at least a Poem... perhaps you could create a poem in due season. You are astute enough to take on the task. I would love to read said poem as time goes by. truly, Pat

I agree with Susan... you can move... a warmer climate does have an appealing thought .. it’s so cold here and as far as senility goes I might have a touch of that as lose a few things on a daily basis lol my glasses that are on me head and my keys in my jacket pocket lol

[jacob erin-cilberto]

ha ha...thank you Katrina,
