The Body Is Aging Poem by Francis Duggan

The Body Is Aging



The body is aging the mind is okay
With most people anyhow it is this way
We age rather quickly beyond our lives prime
And there is no turning back the hands of time
It has been said that wisdom does come with age
Though not every town it can boast of a sage
You may not always receive the credit you are due
But that we learn as we live happens for to be true
In most people the body does age much faster than the brain
And for anyone this is not hard to explain
For everyone a last Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall
Eventually time does take care of us all
And though the body is aging the mind is okay
With most people anyhow it is this way.
