How beautiful it is to watch each other grow
How many you’s have I known? I don’t know.
Constantly changing evolving each day
The person I knew keeps going away
Being replaced by someone just slightly changed
Some cells in the being simply rearranged
A new mood, a new attitude
A new facial expression, a small bout of depression
A new laugh, a new giggle, a new body with a bit of new jiggle
Aging with you is a pleasure, a joy
A privilege denied to many, a gift, like a toy
Playing in life, having fun, taking it as it comes
After all, these wrinkles make us the lucky ones.
