Need inspiration?

 


A poem reflecting on time, ageing, resting, and above all, resilience.


Themes denied to so many.

Occasionally, you can try to do too much.

Title.

Need inspiration?


(A lone voice whispers)


You all know the game.

It's within your power to have an hour.


Be proud to feel old, a fate denied to so many: but never fold. 


Recover, then step back into the cold.
