Age By Charles F Blanchard
Charles F Blanchard 1952 (Springfield, MA)
Age is only a means of measuring
not the maturity of an individual
but a chronological function to
separate groups and minds.
Age has much more to give
than we're willing to admit
in this day and time
just like loneliness helps us value and treasure
and hunger helps us appreciate
age is like a fine wine
goes from good to better to best
I say to all don't judge me by may age
judge me by what I have to offer
