We seem to all be suffering a common problem these days, WHERE DID OUR LIVES GO? Our brains seem to still be 18, but our bodies are talking a different language. Sarah Orne Jewett puts it much more eloquently than do I:

“Neither of my companions was troubled by her burden of years. I hoped in my heart that I might be like them as I lived on into age, and then smiled to think that I too was no longer very young. So we always keep the same hearts, though our outer framework fails and shows the touch of time.”

“At Seventy: Some Kind, of a Sonnet” — a poem by Alan Yount the Count

A busy guy ~ a new poem by Alan Yount, another of our talented classmates, both as a musician and a poet!  Check out the website link for his latest, a sonnet about, well really about aging!   I have been privileged and honored to read several of his poetic works, they are really great!  Be sure to read below the poem for the blurb & photo of Alan.  Having watched the St. Louis Symphony last night, the photo makes him look more the frontiersman than concert musician, puts me in mind of some other renaissance men I know!!!  Way to go Alan, continuing in the tradition of making KHS65 look SO good!  Thank you for sharing!
