On this day you're turning forty

By poet gurl23

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

On this day you're turning fourty, remember age is a stepping stone to which wisdom is gained Desire is subdued by realizing what's really important, Family there through thick and thin, The small kindnesses we usually take for granted, and peace which tends to be cleared from our time shedule Wealth in your collection of love increases, True feelings come out and relationships have the chance to flourish On this day you're turning fourty, Remember age is a stepping stone to which wisdom is gainedI wrote this for my mom on her 40th B-day.
