October 2014
I feel that I’m living a double-digit life
And it has been full of love and grief,
But a generous fullness that day-by-day,
I knew that all would work out okay.
But when the bean counters plotted my retirement
My money and grace would run out at ninety-nine.
So much for being that coveted century man.
I guess I’m not built to survive as a triple digit fan.
Life’s more than a destination, but a travel adventure
That we are generously following/leading each other.
At present, knowing/loving each other for 45 years,
Can we double down, making it to a bigger digit than 90?
Now that would truly be a life-time amazing adventure!
