. January now Is not the same As when We were young Back then There was more than Reindeer flying Through a starry sky Near the end Of a prior year I could believe Growing up Is not the same As growing old One can be aged As Moses And still a fool Over withered fields Covered in new snow The plaintive ringing Of a distant bell . |

"January now is not the same as when we were young" Truer words were never spoken. Ida |

yes ... a fine 'penning'! particularly that part of a line: "...a starry sky Near the end Of a prior year I could believe" applause! |

One can be aged As Moses And still a fool is it good or bad to be a fool ? It surely depends. Thank you for the tremendous poem. yann |
