Another Year Bites the Dust





The birthday hurly-burly is no more, and serenity has once again taken its rightful place in my life. The overabundance of fun and food is a thing of the past for this year, and I enjoyed every minute of it. However, I am not going to step on the scale for a few days.

Age is strictly a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

~Jack Benny~

And I don't mind at all.

Janice in Wonderland

The sands of the present trickle slowly

Through the hourglass of time

Becoming memories of days gone by

Lived to the fullest.

Regrets, a few, are pushed aside

To watch the grains gently drift through space

And arrive peacefully at journey's end

When each moment touches the past.

Lingering sands yet to descend

Eagerly await their chance

To plummet to new adventures and happenings

In the often challenging wonderland of living.
