Never old

My greatest wish is to never grow old
To never have an aged soul

To never feel what you see outside
To pull from the child inside

To never slow down like my body would have it
To reach out for every one of life's fruits and grab it

To rejoice at every moment whether happy or sad
Accepting and soaking in all my experiences,good or bad.

To laugh in deaths face as he follows me around each bend
Then finally greet him with as a a friend at the end

To look back as we journey on and say I never wasted a minute
I loved my wonderful youthful life and how I lived it
