Dimensional
when I reached the prime of life
I realized the climax of time,

That evening trending grayer than the rest
  He'd set out for the shore line's last request

Pre-cancer no one ever called him quitter
  Prime of Life arrived melanoma bitter...

Premium Member I'm In My Eyes
Life flows in cyclical rhythm
biorhythm
cycles of change
time rearrange

In prime of life what shall we choose?
Wear the best shoes?
Pies in the skies?
Wide open eyes!

Accepting that I'm getting old
my thoughts turn bold

I'm in my eyes

She was so young
And in the prime of life

I miss her every day
Much more than she ever thought I would

a first sip of miso soup
exotic and warm
forging a downward path
flowing like a life force
transporting me
as I close my eyes
to a timeless moment
sharing with countless kin
through the ages
young and old
some in the prime of life
some near their final breath
the sum of their days
deep in their heart
