I am Getting Old

Today for the first time life reminded me I am no longer the young and healthy stud I used to be,

My heart though is still strong as it fills with these wondrous feelings of me being alive,

I know that once these emotions and feelings leave me I to will leave this life that has given me so much,

I only know that when I wake and find her by my side I quietly close my eyes and give thanks for another day on this glorious planet of ours,

And knowing I have been blessed I turn to her and share my joy.
